And here we go...

D.T.C!!!!! (insert butterflies)...For those wondering what this means??? Well, it means we are finally sending our dossier (lots of paperwork) to China!! So this is one BIG step closer to our Miss Madelyn.

Next comes....

LID-Log in date (the date our paperwork is officially logged in to China's system.

then...

LOA-Letter of Approval

Then...

TA- TRAVEL APPROVAL!!!!

All this will takes months but who cares, Madelyn is coming home!!!

FYI...
I'm writing this post on Sunday night because Karla at Lifeline emailed me that we'll be DTC tomorrow (Monday 2-8). Today is my birthday so thank you Jesus for my life and for my wonderful DTC present and thank you JESUS for my blessings here in my arms that I love so much...My precious kids, my best friend who happens to be my husband and all my family near and far for making my day so special!!

On a side note...


This is also my 200th post! So I'm having a little giveaway! I will draw the winner on Valentine's day. All you have to do to enter is leave me a comment or email at corzine03@hotmail.com. I'll post the prize this week cuz I'm heading to Hobby Lobby tomorrow!
