Today Is A Special Day - Very Special...

We both were tired. We both wondered if today would be the day. We are still tired and yes, Today was the day. Aly and I are DTC. CONGRATULATIONS, Ford & Alyson Your dossier was sent to China today! :) Here’s what to expect for the next month: The CCAA will receive your dossier in approximately 3-5 days. We will e-mail you your Dossier to China Information Packet as soon as we know that your dossier has been received by the CCAA. The current referral timeline will be discussed in this packet. The CCAA usually logs in dossiers within 1 month of their receipt. Your dossier may be logged-in this or next month. The CCAA will notify us within the next 8 weeks. The date will be posted on your personal on-line Parent Access Network page of the CCAI website the instant that we are notified. Again, congratulations! If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me. Congrats on hitting this milestone, Kim I really don’t know what to say. We both are just kind of numb if that makes sense. We know the “waiting” period is going to be hard, very hard but we are just so glad that the paperchase is over. Until you have gone through this, you have no way of knowing how truly hard the paperchase can be. So now the next big step is to go LID. We have our fingers crossed for that to happen before the end of this month. We still believe in miracles :) We've toasted with a great California cab complete with a hug, a smile and a kiss for our Alyzabeth. I wish I could find the words to express this better but tonight I simply can’t find those words. We’re numb with joy…
