Updates on Jonah and Rees

Well, hello, everyone ... we have received an update on the boys!  Are you excited??

We didn't get any photos but we may in the next couple weeks.  We were hoping for some information that would help us to determine the boys' sizes ... but ... well, I am just not sure what to do with this information.  Perhaps there are some out there who can help me out!!


Jonah's measurements:

Shoulder width - 26cm/10 inches
Upper body (from chair when sitting to top of head) - 37cm/14.5 inches    (HUH???)
Pant length - 55cm/21.6 inches
Foot length - 18cm/7 inches

It says he appeared to be average size for a six year old.  
(If any of you who met him in China with Love Without Boundaries can help me out here, that would be GREAT!)

Rees' measurements:

Shoulder width - 22cm/8.6 inches
Upper body (from chair when sitting to top of head) - 35cm/13.5 inches
Pant length - 50 cm/19.6 inches
Foot Length - 16cm/6.2 inches

It also says he appeared to be average size for a five year old.

So, not exactly sure what to equate this to.  Would it just be best to assume they are in size 5 and size 6 for boys clothing?  Hopefully we will get more substantial measurements when it gets closer to the time of travel.  


Prayer Requests 

  • Continued healing for Jonah after his surgery which was just over a month ago.
  • That God is preparing the boys to meet us and to become a part of our family.
  • That the process of adoption paperwork continues to move forward without complication or delay.
  • That we will see God move mightily for us to receive donations, have successful fundraisers and earn extra money needed to fund this adoption, travel to China and provide for the boys' necessary surgeries.
