Today was a banner day!  First, Brian picked up my amended surgical history letter– and it was signed and notarized properly (yay!) Secondly, we had a big, fat packet from USCIS and the Department of Homeland Security. On very official-looking paper, Our Government certified us as acceptable adoptive parents to one child or twins living in a country operating under the Hague Convention (of which China is one). This document is the final missing piece we’ve been waiting for.

Our next step is to get those final two documents certified, then all the documents head to the Consulate. At the rate we’re going, we should have our dossier to our agency and on its way to China by early November!!!
