Fortunately, Jingzhi was found by a nice person who took her to the children’s welfare institute in Suzhou. The kid was admitted into the orphanage with the note. It was at the same time, Ken and Ruth turned to the orphanage with other nine families led by Bethany Christian Services. It was there they adopted a cute little girl child who happened to be Jingzhi. But they not only found the baby but also a letter with her that they could not understand as it was in Chinese.       

Deciphering

They named the girl Kati. The couple took along a translator who was tasked with translating the contents of  the letter into English. After boarding the bus, they handed her the letter.  

What To Do?

With every word, their astonishment only increased. The letter indeed posed a dilemma for the couple. They felt that telling Kati about her birth parent at such a tender age would only worsen the situation. According to them, the girl was too young to put up with this truth. So, the couple decided to keep the letter away from her until she gets mature enough to deal with it.  

She’s American Through and Through

It did not take much time for Kati to get along with them. Soon enough, she became the life of the family. She lived her childhood in a small town with a population of 7,000 people. The girl adopted classic American lifestyle without any trouble. What else she did?

Learning It Through

Kati started visiting the church from a very young age as her adoptive parents were very religious. Not only that but she also learned to play piano, violin. The little girl would contest in sports and loved traveling the country. After completing high school, Kati took admission into Calvin College to study public health and music. It is a liberal arts university.     

Things Were Improving

Everything was running smoothly and perfectly in Kati’s life. Her birth parents too had made some progress in their financial status. Her birth parents had opened up a shop where they sold refrigerators, washing machine, and other things. Apparently, the couple was toiling hard to keep the wolves off the door. They would work every day without an off. The good thing was that their efforts were paying them off.
