We're Official!!!

We were officially "Logged in" to China's system as of Monday, March 24th!  This means we are officially recognized as a family who is eligible to adopt from China and can begin receiving referrals!  I cannot even explain how elated I was when I saw that log in date posted.  It was the culmination of months and months of work and brings us that much closer to our child. 
 

A new shared list came out Monday and I was kind of hoping our child was on that list but we didn't receive a call yesterday about it, so I guess we'll just have to wait!  I am so thankful we serve a God who we can put our hopes and fears totally on his good shoulders!  His timing is perfect and, even though the wait is difficult, I know He has our child already chosen for us and will reveal them to us at just the right time. 

We're moving as fast as we can, baby!  My prayer is that you somehow know we are coming for you and have hope that there are people on the other side of the world who already love you more than you will ever know!

DTC!!

Our Dossier was sent to China (DTC) on Friday March 14th!  This step feels like such an accomplishment.  At the beginning of the process, we looked a that loooong list of required paperwork and it felt almost impossible to get it all done and here we are, seven months later, sending it all to China! 

The next step is receiving our log-in-date which makes us "officially" eligible to adopt and we can begin receiving referrals!!!  It could be anytime now or as long as several months before our referral is accepted but I cannot wait to see the face of our son or daughter for the first time. 

Come on Log in!!
