Whatshername is only 6 and a half months old. That's very young for a referral from China, very young - babies are only released for international adoption at 6 months old, so Whatshername is as young as I could possibly hope for!
I'm sure there will be many reasons why 'she' was chosen for me but at the moment I know very little about her so her age is very important. As a first time Mum I really wanted to have a young baby to know that I had missed as little of her life and development as possible. But there is also a far more important implication - less time in an institution should mean less developmental delays.
We are very lucky, truly lucky.
