Referral




We finally received our referral on March 6, 2006! Lola is an adorable ten month old and we are delighted to say the least. Her referral paperwork states that she is healthy, quiet, ready with a smile and crawls well on hands and knees.
Our travel meeting is on March 17th. We will meet the thirteen other families who will travel with us to Guangdong, China. There are also thirteen families traveling to JiangXi, so hopefully we will meet up with them in Guangzhou, where the U.S. Consulate is located. We are anticipating travel sometime in late April or early May. Hopefully, we will be with our baby to celebrate her first birthday on April 30th.
