OH. MY. WORD. Well, guess what.... as far as the adoption is concerned pretty much nothing has changed, just still WAITING!
Until today!!!!!!
I just mailed our dossier to our agency. Sure, it's just one more thing marked off the list of A LOT; but it's a huge one! It's the "takes 9 months to fill out paper work" one. It's the "yes the country is officially notified and you are in their system" one. It's the "add us to more listings in the country" one.
Now, I know I've said it a ton of times, but I am really being taught some patience and faith! In order for our documents to be logged into country before Chinese New Year they had to be at our agency today. I received conformation that our last paper from DC would be delivered on Tuesday. Our deliveries are always made by around 5:00 and I had everything ready so that as soon as it got here I could go straight to overnight it, it had to be logged into the computer for delivery by 6:30 Tuesday night. I had already contacted our agency to make sure of timing and had been assured that as long as it was in their hands by today it would make the next shipment. Well, God surely has other plans, clearly! The document was not only delivered after the 6:30 overnight cut off, it wasn't even delivered until after the place closed! Talk about God closing a door! Needless to say, our paperwork will not be logged in country until after the "New Year", but it is on it's way, and God's timing is perfect!
I also want to say thank you SO much to all of you that have chosen to help with funding and bought a leaf on our princesses family tree! Our funds so far have been completely covered. We are still only about 1/3rd of the way there, so if any of you are still interested in buying a leaf please click on the link at the top right of my blog labeled "family tree". We would love you to become a part of her family!
Thank you so much for all your prayers in this time. We are still SO excited but seriously, anxiously waiting to meet our precious daughter.
Hopefully I'll be updating sooner than later!!!!
