Thank You GOD!! LOA

I got the call today from our agency that our LOA/SCL arrived at their office today!!! YAHOO. This is our official referral for Ellie, they have approved us to adopt her and we should be traveling soon!! (Well 8 weeks or so) That is soon in comparison to how long we have been waiting already!! Unforutately October is tricky time to travel in China due to a national holiday and a large 2 week trade fair that goes on in Guangzhou(GZ). The American consulate is in GZ and we will spend the last week there waiting for our consulate appointment to get her visa to travel here to the US. We will just have to keep waiting and trusting in God to work it out for us and keep Ellie safe and healthy as she waits for us. We are REALLY HAPPY!! and the weather for our trip should be perfect!! The only problem is that Riley will have to miss some school, but luckily he is a good student and will be fine. So tomorrow I will spend my day peeking out the window waiting for the UPS man to stop by!!!
