Terry and I wanted to give everyone an update on Caroline. We have been in contact with our adoption agency at least a few times per week and have been assured that our paperwork is being “worked on” in China. Our agency has not been given any indication that we would be denied….it is just that the paperwork has to be all matched up. This can take up to 4 months after we are referred our daughter (our referral date is June 18), then after the paperwork is matched up we wait for the “travel approval”. The travel approval can take up to another 2 weeks then we will receive dates to travel. So the magic question is…..when do we think we travel…..our agency is expecting mid to late November. We will have at least a few weeks notice before we go so it’s not like we will get a phone call one night that we have to travel the next day. When we do travel we will be in China for 2 weeks, we will bring Caroline back with us.
To say the least we are getting antsy, we would have liked to be traveling by now. However, (always looking on the positive side) Michael started High School this past month and we have been able to make sure that the transition from Middle school to High school has gone smooth. Lauren, who goes to the local Catholic school, had surgery on her knee late August; so again, we are glad that we have been around to make sure that her therapy has gone well.
