L.O.A is HERE!!!!


Day 102.......Today I received an email from my Social Worker that my LOA has arrived to Central Office!!!! That means it should arrive to my Social Worker within the next day or two for my signature. The LOA is an important document. Its your Letter of Approval from China and is also one last form I need to sign. Its also called a Letter Seeking Commitment from the Adopter. I need to check the box off saying I'm still wishing to adopt Channing, date the letter and sign it. Then off it goes back to China.

The next and final step in this adoption journey is waiting for my TA....Travel Approval!!! China usually will send this out within 2 to 5 weeks after they receive my LOA back. My agency will soon let me know when I will be travelling!!!

I am just on cloud nine......HORRAY......this is so real.......I'm going to China soon!!! Soon I will be able to hold and kiss my little girl!!!!!
