LOA!!! LOA!!! LOA!!!!
At 5:28pm I received an email from our amazing China Coordinator that our LOA has arrived! We are very hopeful that this puts us in a position to travel in early to mid-August! Our next wait is for TA (travel authorization)... This step took eight weeks with Sienna. It's possible we actually could get there close to her third birthday on July 24th!! Thank you to all of you who were praying for us!! We are excited and humbled at this chance to bring another one of God's precious children home!!
Emme Jade! China has blessed us with their permission to officially adopt you!!
We can't wait to meet you and take care of you forever!!
"I prayed for this child, and the Lord has granted me what I asked of him!"

welcome Emme from Gotcha-Day to Touchdown
here in the Mosquito Capitol of the world. She seemed to make magic in China with Sienna.
Congratulations to you and Jeff. Is someone prepared to be outnumbered 5-to-1? You might consider installing a 3/4 ( Boys only ) Bath over in the corner of the basement ?
