bret burned

By anyone's standards Bret had a frightening start in life. As a baby, she was abandoned on the streets of Baiyun District in Guangzhou, China. Most likely another victim of the one child per family policy and China's traditional value of boys. Then I believe she was accidentally burned in the orphanage. There is no doubt that Bret had to struggle to survive.

But Bret is an exceptional girl. She is quiet, but not shy. She is confident, smart and happy. She takes her surgeries in stride. She has another one coming up soon.

Last week, she was inducted into Junior National Honor Society.

It’s my prayer that she will listen, trust, obey and let God continue to work in her life.
