Our Journey Begins

(Chinese symbol for family)

We began our journey to grow our family well over a year ago. After much paperwork and the completion of our homestudy our file was sent to the China Centre for Adoption Affairs (see photo below) and logged in on June 9, 2005.

The wait has been longer than expected but we can begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel. With any luck, we should be receiving our referral information in April or May with travel to follow in June or July.

If all goes well, we should be able to use this blog to post daily reports (and hopefully pictures) from China.

In the meantime, please visit this site regularly for updates as we'll be sure to post our referral information and the picture of our newest little one as soon as it arrives.
