Orphanages in China are required to run a provincial newspaper advertisement for children that are found and brought to their orphanage. They are called "Finding Ads." These ads contain information about where and when the children were found and which orphanage is caring for them. They include a photograph of the child as well. These photographs are usually the earliest available pictures of the children.
We received Ren's finding ad today from a fellow in the States who locates them for a small fee. It was published in the "Yangcheng Evening News" on May 18, 2007. We're not sure exactly how old Ren is in the photo but he can't be more than 6 months old - our earliest photo of Ren so far!

Hi Monica! It is Tracy from the Zhuhai board. I am trying to get three photo's to you, but can't view your complete email address. Send me an email. My address is atracys1965@gmail.com and I will send you the pictures.
Kate said that when your son arrived at Zhuhai he was very skinny, but he ate allot and became big fast. She played with him allot and he is very happy especially when he gets picked up. This little boy was her favorite boy. She has another little girl that she calls her sister.

Awww... what a tiny little sweetheart. Ren is such a beautiful child.
We got our daughter's fnding ad a few years ago... they are fantastic to have, because these are typically the earliest photos of our little ones.
Such a wonderful keepsake to have, Monica! He looks just adorable there!
Sounds like you're getting lots of info and more pics of your boy. That is SO wonderful!!!
