    Hello all...

    With all the talk about babies and grandkids, I decided that I should introduce you all to the love of our family.

    She came to us when she was just 16 months old when my daughter welcomed her into their home. She was born in India and had been living in an orphanage
    since birth. I went with my daughter to Seattle, Wa and greeted her to the USA
    and it's been uphill ever since....

    Her name was Preethi but she is now Anne Preethi, 16, and very much a young lady and is the love of our lives.

    What a gift, for everyone!! One of my dear classmates from law school is an Indian gal named Preeti!! I love that name. Fits your beautiful granddaughter. Thanks for sharing - what a great story. I'm glad to hear she is so loved and brought into a family that offered her such a wonderful life!!

    She's also so grown up looking...she looks like a little lady. Is she quite successful in school? She seems like she would be...just has the "good head on her shoulders" look about her.
