U - T - A - H Baby!!!

When you are adopting, little things can be huge. Getting a piece of paper, having your papers stamped, sending your papers off...yes, it is a big deal. Yesterday we finally were able to send off our papers, our dossier, to our agency for translation to make their way to China. The packet should arrive in Utah this afternoon.

Our agency will go over every document to make sure that everything is perfect before it makes its way across the Pacific. After it arrives in China, we will be issued a log in date. This date marks our "official" start of the waiting game. The waiting that we have done since January it doesn't count....at least not to anyone except us!

So another milestone accomplished and a step closer. Hopefully it will be smooth sailing from here on out. I really think that February travel is possible even though there have been some very long waits for those already logged in. With Anna's adoption there were some that had waited a long time and our wait looked much longer than it was, but the CCAA must have done some overtime because we only waited 2 months for our LOA, which is not long. I don't expect a 2 month LOA, but I am not ruling it out either ;-)

Looking to the next milestone & sending love to Elli,
Rodney, Marcy, Carter, Jacob, Parker & Anna
