We have our LOA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Most of you won't understand what this means, but those who have adopted from China are doing the Hallalujeuah Dance!!!! We got the call that we have been waiting since June 3, 2008 the day we saw Mariah on the waiting child list. LOA means that China has officially said that she is ours, they have gone through our paperwork and have sent a Letter of Approval saying we can come get her. Now we just wait for our Travel Approval which can be a week to 4 weeks and that is when we find out the date we are allowed to go to China. YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Praise the Lord!!!!!!!!! I am in the clouds right now with joy and we are just steps from having our little girl home!!!! It just finally seems real now and I am more excited than ever if that is even possible.

He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they can not fathom what God has done from beginning to end. Ecclesiastes 3:11 NIV
