We have now completed all of our requirements for the home study update to our new home. It will take a couple of weeks to be written up. For now I'm filling out all the paperwork and putting all the documents together so we can file the i600A as soon as we get the home study. Once that is filed, there is nothing more we can do to help the process until we have our match. We plan on starting to learn some basic Mandarin. Don't be surprised if you come to our house and see flash cards all over the place. We are doing lots of research to see what traditions and customs we would like to bring into our family.
There are now 79 puzzle pieces on our puzzle!! We cannot be more thankful!! We appreciate everyone's gifts, prayers, and encouragement. This is not an easy process but you all make it easier. We appreciate you being there when we get discouraged with the process and the waiting.
