Our dossier was overnighted to AAI (our adoption agency) on Thursday, September 18th. Ky e-mailed me on Friday, September 19th to let me know that she had forwarded our dossier to the Secretary of State in Washington and then it will go to the Chinese Consulate for authentication. Once this is done, it will go to China. She went ahead and sent our home study to the facilitator in China for translation so he would have a head start while waiting for the rest of our dossier. We are hoping to be DTC (dossier to China) by mid-October. Our wait will then begin for China to give us LOA (letter of acceptance) and then TA (travel approval). We will then be off to bring our precious daughter home!
Mandy took pictures of Savannah and Shiloh in their Chinese outfits so I am including several pictures. Aren't they real beauties! They are growing up so fast. I have to include a picture of our daughter also. As always, she looks healthy and happy.
John Anthony called me last week to tell me that he had bought a motorcycle. My first reaction was one of surprise. He actually bought a small one that gets 85 miles to the gallon and from the picture he sent me, it looks pretty "safe".
