XRF.ZYC.0809.32169.01 This 2 year old girl is described as a quiet, beautiful girl with a ready smile. Though described as shy and introverted, she is good at communicating with others and likes staying with people.

She is fond of listening to music, her favorite activity is playing Patty-cake and her favorite toy is a soft blanket.
SP.FAH.0709.32307.01 This 2 year old girl is a pretty little girl who gave us big smiles when the camera flash went off. Her caregivers report that she is blind, but can see a little bit. Based on her smiles and giggles when the camera flash went off, it appears that she can see light. Her caregivers say that she is able to roll over and can play on her stomach. She can hold her head up well. Her eyes rove around with jerky movements. Her development is delayed. From what the orphanage staff shared with us, it sounds as though she spends most of her time in her crib and so it is quite possible that some of her delays are from institutionalization. Her head circumference is 41 ½ cm. She needs a family who will give her the attention she needs and deserves and help her reach her full potential.This child is listed with WACAP through a special partnership project with his/her orphanage. At this time, his/her file is not eligible to be transferred to a different agency. There is a $4,200 Promise Child grant for eligible families for this adoption.
