We have a Log-in-date!

Spring break was a very productive time for our family!  The kids and I went to Alexandria to help my parents with packing and sorting through things as they are preparing to sell their house and move closer towards us!  Yeah!  I worked hard organizing paperwork for grant and loan applications as well.  The most exciting news is... we now have a log-in-date!  March 13th we received a letter stating,

Re: CCAI Log-In Date & Packet
Congratulations!  Your dossier has been logged in by the China Center for Children’s Welfare and Adoption!

Your official dossier log-in date (LID) is: 03/13/2014
           
I corresponded with CCAI that day and it was confirmed that in 3-5 months we should be matched with our child and then travel will be 3-5 months after that!  It is crazy exciting for me to think that in six months, SEPTEMBER, we might be bringing our child home!  I realize it could be 2015, depending on the way our timeline works out, but everything is in God's timing, so I know whatever happens was the plan all along. 

The kids also were able to enjoy their break.  They had fun playing with Grammy's arts and crafts.  They also got to go to two different water parks that week!  We had a few fun playdates later in the week once we were back home as well.  As busy as the week was, it was so appreciated.  I just love being able to sleep in, stay up late and cuddle up with the kids with a good book or movie, and to mix up our routine a little.

Our next adoption step is to get a LOA (I believe) and keep watching my email to see when that referral comes our way.  Can't wait!
