The Pirate had some fun time at school today...He got to go out and play for 1 hour because he is a good student. I went out to help supervise and while the Pirate came up to see me, we noticed a bug on his shirt. Would you believe it was a LADYBUG!!!! The saying goes in Adoptions...when you see a ladybug, good news is coming! Well it did...
At 12:30 today, we received confirmation that our Letter of Invitation or TA had arrived from China! Which means that our agency can now request our Consulate appointment at the US Embassy in Guangzhou. I think they are asking for it to be on June 24th. Which means we should be leaving around June 14th...22 days from now!!!!!
We did find out there are 2 other families going to China along with us. One being from Florida. We have met them...they seem very nice. They are adopting a little boy.
I am trying to arrange flights for the three of us. The Mermaid has to have a paper ticket with her Chinese name on it, she will still have a chinese passport when get home. She will become a citizen where ever we land in the US. That is the hardest part of all... her paper ticket. We'll work it out.
Things are moving now...

It was so exciting to see the pirate so excited to let the ladybug go. As he watched it crawl away, he said to the mermaid "see you soon!" All of his classmates were wishing and hoping as well! We can't wait to meet the mermaid!

I was so glad to see you in the office and hear that your TA came. Then, when I was on the bus ramp I heard the ladybug story. SO very exciting! Can't wait to meet her.~Tricia
