Our Daughter

Amelia (Lu Anhong 陆安红) was abandoned at the gate of Social Welfare Institute of Liu’an City, Anhui on Jan.28, 2008. She has black hair, ptosis of left upper eyelid, and esotropia of left eye. The police failed to find the birth parents and then sent her to the orphanage. Based on physical examination, the estimated date of birth was Feb. 1, 2004.

She was named Lu Anhong. “Lu” is the partial tone of “Liu” in “Liu’an”; “Anhong” implies that her life would be full of ease and happiness.

Anhong is 5 years old now. She is fairly extroverted. All the teachers in the kindergarten like her. She enjoys dancing. When hearing music, she would twist her body and dance. She also enjoys drawing pictures, and often uses her watercolor pen drawing pictures on paper. Though she is still not good at drawing, but she is very earnest. She also puts away toys after playing. Kids in the orphanage like her very much. She is able to count from 1 to 100, without any help. She is also able to tell simple stories, though not the whole story sometimes.
