L*O*A


Just when we thought we couldn't possibly wait another day, we got word that our LOA is on its way!  A DHL error in California has held it up, BUT we should have it in hand tomorrow.

So, China said, "Yes!"   The parents are in fact good luck!  Next step? Sending in visa applications and another round of immigration paperwork.  Movement feels good.  What is our travel timeline?  Us and timelines don't mix, but probably two months.   The next, and final series of letters that we are waiting for are TA, Travel Approval.   This will be official permission to travel to the Chengdu (Sichuan Province) to pick up our girl!
The last words that I read before waking up to news of our LOA? 

After waiting patiently, Abraham received what was promised.
Hebrews 6:15.
