LOA!!!

We received the email this morning, our LOA, or letter of acceptance, has arrived at our agency!!!!

God helped me to be forgetful this morning, otherwise I would've been out running errands, instead of coming home to pick up something I forgot and I wouldn't have gotten the email until afternoon.

It has been a long wait, 144 days, much longer than the average which is around 100 days but God is so good!

The agency is overnighting the letter to us, we will sign it, then overnight it back to the agency. When they receive it, they will send it on to China then we will wait for our TA (Travel Approval) to arrive, and that is taking around 2-3 weeks right now.

We are one huge step closer to bringing Ethan home.

Things to pray for:
1. Our LOA will arrive here to be signed and get back to China quickly and safely.
2. CCAA will process our TA quickly.
3. That we will receive our TA and be able to travel in early April before the Trade Fair that is during the last two weeks of April, that will make travel almost impossible.
4. That Ethan will be safe and healthy until we can bring him home.
