We Got LOA!!!!!

Today is such a joy filled day....we got our Letter of Acceptance (LOA)! That was a long 18 days, and I am just beside myself with emotion. We are nearing the final chapter of this 4+ year journey, and about to begin a beautiful and brand new journey. I am thrilled to say that we are now awaiting travel approval (TA). This is really happening........

    Congratulations on receiving LOA!! I know the 18 days seemed like an eternity to you...but at least you didn't have to wait the 70 days we did!! The rest will go very quickly so get ready now! I look forward to following your journey.

    Hi~

    I saw your blog on Facebook and Lily is just absolutely breathtaking. Congratulations on this beautiful blessing.

    I'm Lisa and I have one daughter (5) from Hunan. Her name is Lindy and she is the apple of my eye. We were originally waiting for another daughter from China (LID 11/2007) but we switched over to Taiwan in December 2008. We thought we'd already have a daughter by now but snags hit in Taiwan. Ugh. So we wait...

    I hope it won't be long until you get to bring your precious Lily home and that you will be at peace until then.

    I'm in and out on blog land--I have three--but I look forward to keeping up with you and your journey.

    Many blessings~
