I just received an email that we have our Log-In Date! As of February 2, 2012 we are Logged in. So, we are already six days into our wait. Our dossier has made it to China and the documents have to be translated. Then we wait for our LOA (Letter of Acceptance). This is the super important document that gives us approval to adopt Mariah......officially!
The wait for our LOA can vary. Some are getting their LOA's in the 40-50 day range, and others are on day 135. We pray for patience and peace during this time. Most of all, we pray for good health for Mariah.
I have a family that has offered to take a care package over to Mariah when they go in March. Their daughter was adopted from Mariah's orphanage a few years ago and they are going back to visit. This sweet family has offered to take pictures of her. I asked if they would give her an extra hug and kisses from all of us, if they were allowed into the baby room. They were gracious and said they certainly would. Then I asked if they would whisper in Mariah's ear and tell her we are coming soon!
