That's right, it only took the agency 5 months to get Jaemin's Christmas presents from his foster family to the US. I won't complain thought because a) we're lucky to correspond with his foster family and b) if they put getting those kiddos home first, that's okay too.
So, we got a Christmas card (and translation) written by Youn Su, Jaemin's foster sister. The letters and emails from Youn Su are always so sweet. They sent him a Jenga game (written in Hangul), a Hangul learning poster and a Pororo airplane toy. They actually sent two Hangul learning posters, so the girls now have one hung in their bedroom and I wrote the letter sounds so they can start learning a little.
For those that aren't fluent in any Korean culture, Pororo, the penguin, is HUGE! He's kind of like our Mickey Mouse, etc. Jaemin loved his Pororo toy. We turned it on and he started getting so excited and waving his hands. He's almost worn the batteries out already.
Youn Su, if you and your family are reading I truly hope you know how much your correspondence means to us and Jaemin.
