LOA!!

We finally got the call today! We are so happy we are finally approved to go get Aimee! We are on day 106. Our agency says we will receive TA in about a month, but since Chinese New Year is at the end of January, we will most likely travel around the second week of February (about the same exact time as we travelled for Abbey just 4 years ago.)

A few days ago we had a small update on Aimee. The orphanage says she is happy and that she knows her family is coming to get her. She misses her friend who was adopted several months ago. Also, she wants to bring candy to all of her friends in the orphanage.

Thank you for all of your love and prayers.

Gayle
