Praise the Lord! Our approval from the US Immigration offices came in yesterday, just under two months, as opposed to the 3 month time wait they quoted us. This paper gives us permission to bring an orphan home and petition for her citizenship. We can't bring her home without it. Today I had to take it to get notarized, then had to go to the post office to overnight it to the Secretary of State of Kansas (once it comes back from the ol' Sec, I have to send it to the Chinese Consulate in Chicago) That's all fine and easy (not really) until I dropped the paperwork in a giant puddle while trying to get the twins, myself and the document out of the van. So, it wasn't one of my brightest moments, but hopefully after a good ironing, they'll be acceptable. Let's pray!!
This now puts us within a few weeks of being able to send our Dossier (paperwork) to China. Once China receives it, we'll be in the waiting stage, which is currently 11-12 months.
