continued, "Anni was almost forcibly aborted at 6 to 7 months. Family
Planning Police were pressuring her mother daily to abort her, because
she was her father's second child. As a second daughter, she could have
been a victim of sex-selective abortion. But her brave parents
sacrificed greatly to bring her into this world, and we're so glad she's
here!"
Littlejohn
pointed out that Anni was born on January 22, 2003, the thirtieth
anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision, now Celebration of Life Day.
"I believe that Anni symbolizes all the beauty, brilliance and love of
Chinese girls, every one of whom deserves to draw breath on this earth."
Littlejohn and others rescued Anni and her sister Ruli from China
three years ago. Littlejohn and her husband are now raising Anni as
their own daughter. Once in America, Littlejohn discovered that Anni has
an amazing talent playing piano. Anni won an international contest and
performed piano in Carnegie Hall just before Christmas, 2016. She had
only been playing three years.
