Adorable 11-year-old Sofia is listed with Madison Adoption Associates. Sofia is diagnosed with post-op cleft lip and palate. From an update in April: Sofia’s mental development is normal or the same as peers the same age. Her special need no longer affects her life. Sofia is extroverted and active. She is very well behaved and obedient. Her gross and fine motor skills are normal and she is attending a public school. Sofia wants to be adopted. In her file, she said: I still hope to have my own father and mother who will love me, care for me, and accompany me, so that I can enjoy the warmth of family like other children. Sofia’s Chinese name means ‘bright future.’ We know there is a family out there for this beautiful girl and that her future will be beyond bright once she’s home and with them!

Updated measurements for Sofia: Height- 153.5 cm, Weight- 39.42 kg, Head- 53 cm, Chest- 72 cm, Foot- 24 com, Teeth- 23

There is a $2,000 agency grant for Sofia’s adoption with Madison Adoption Associates. Other grants may be available based on the adoptive family’s circumstances. Agency grants are awarded as agency fee reductions. MAA also partners with the Brittany’s Hope Foundation for matching grants, which are given out twice a year and to families that already have their letter of approval from China.
