We are finally DTC

Our dossier was sent to China on Monday. What this means:

1. China will (should) approve us within about 3 months and send us an LOA (letter of acceptance) after that.
2. We sign that document, send it back to China and wait for our TA (travel approval). This might be another 3 weeks (so this puts us around the end of May). We can start then making TENTATIVE travel arrangements. Once we officially have our TA, we can request a CA (consulate appointment) with the US Consulate in Guanghzou. We should hear yeah or nay within a few days after that and once confirmed, we can make real travel arrangements (beginning of June, please) and be on our way.

One more thing scratched off the list. Thank you Lord for progress.

Can you even believe you are going again? I still can't believe we did it some days! Who are those 2 little girls running around our house?

Sorry I didn't call you back - I'm ignoring you! We won't be at HiH this Friday - Alaina and Doug will be at the Father-Daughter Dance at her school!
