China Dossier



I was surprised today by a big package from our adoption agency. I was not expecting anything from them as they have gone green...we receive everything by email. It was our dossier that has been sitting in China for nearly 2 years. Most of you know we dropped out of the China program. It was very interesting to see our dossier with all that had been added by the Chinese translation of our documents. It made me a little sad to receive this in the mail...it made it real that we have cut our ties with China. We are still very excited about the direction God has chosen for us...Ethiopa...here we come for our little African Queen.
Can you believe all the paper required to adopt a child. I guess we will keep our dossier (as it cost us a load of cash) and show Hannah what it took to make her our child. BTW this is not our dossier from Hannah's adoption. You don't get your dossier once the adoption is finalized. So it is actually kind of neat to have this little treasure.

OH Honey, I'm crying with you! It's Ok to be upset, it was so, so final. When any mother has a miscarriage she has to grieve . You will NEVER forget Zoey but when you see Marissah you will know in an instant the will of our Heavenly Father and all His wisdom and goodness bundled into one small little creature. Love you bunches, have some chocolate and some BBC. Love ya, Nancy Lee
