'Paper' Pregnant at Last...

After what seems like the longest wait - we got THE LETTER from DoCS saying we have been approved as 'suitable and eligble' to adopt a child (or twins) of any sex, 0-24 months from China... oh happy, happy day!

This is comparable to having a good 3 month ultra-sound. So here's ours...

Now we have some more running around to do (more fingerprints, more medical checks, more letters from employers etc etc.) and then we have to get all our documentation notarised and translated and sent back to DoCS - with another reasonable amount of money... and again we wait to form a 'batch'...

Waiting, waiting, waiting...

Darling - we have now been on a path to our first child, to you, for five years... and we will wait some more until we see your face and you are put into our arms. And then... I am sure that the last five years will feel like an instant and forever all at once.

Doing a happy dance this week.
