We just got back from the 1st Friday meeting and it was as great as expected! There were alot of people there tonight from all different stages of adoption. I finally got to meet the famous Lily and she was just as adorable as imagined. We were happy to be able to show the boys how big Shelby is now. They are slowly getting used to the idea that their "baby" sister isn't really a baby. It is great for them to see a living example of what their sister is going to be like when she comes home.
We received an update on another couple that just received their referral to their little girl Laney. They are going to be traveling to China in 2-3 weeks. I can only imagine how excited they are to bring their little girl home. We hope they have a great trip and hope to see Laney in person in a couple of months.
Another couple was there that is also a waiting child family. They are actually getting to adopt a cute little BOY from China. Yes, China does have boys too! Please pray for them to get their final LOA (letter of approval) they have been waiting to receive. Unfortunately they have been delayed in the official CCAA Review Room. I am sure that everything will come together in God's timing. I hope they hear something from China soon!
As usual the meeting was terrific and it is something I have grown to look forward to every month. There are people there from different agencies too. So if you have any interest in China adoption, feel free to join us at one of these meetings :)
PS: I was able to show off Shelby's new baby book as well. It is designed just for Chinese Adoption. Now I guess I will actually have to fill it out ;)
