About Tia

We received the call on October 15, 2009 at 4:10 pm. Our agency called to inform us that they had our referral and she is from the Hunan Province. On October 16, 2009 @ 4:15pm we met with our social worker to get all of the details. This is what we learned about our daughter.
 

Date of Birth: March 17, 2008

Chinese Name: Chen Chensi

Chen is her last name. The Chinese put the last name first. Chensi is her first name. At the orphanage they call her Si Si (pronounced See See).


We have chosen to give her the name Tia Kate Chensi.

She is currently living at the Chenzhou Childrens Welfare Institute in the Hunan Province.

We are told that she is a moderate sleeper. She gets up at 6:30 AM and goes to bed at 7:30pm. We are also told that she is fond of listening to music and fond of playing with toys as well as playing games. She is fairly introverted and is closest to her caretaker.

We are waiting on the rest of her information to be translated into English. We can’t wait to meet her in person. Praise the Lord that little Chen Chensi will be our daughter. What an amazing journey!

We will update this website as we get more information about our travel to China.

We just received updated pictures of Tia! She is now 19 months old and is weighing in at almost 19 pounds. Her foot size is 11 centimeters. Having her new measurements is helpful as we buy clothing for her. We have learned that her favorite activity is to play outside. Her favorite toy is a ball. She enjoys playing and communicating with other children. Judging from the pictures, she is attached to the yellow stacking cup that she is holding.

We can hardly wait to be with her in person and hold her and comfort her… this is hard on a parent’s heart to only have pictures. We are hoping to travel in December. At this time we are waiting on documents to return from China indicating that we may proceed to arrange our travel dates and airfare etc. Thank you for praying for Tia and please continue to do so. God has big plans for this little girl in the months ahead!
