One step closer to Zoe!

My passport came today! It was delivered by the postman who happened to have a ladybug on his arm. I flicked it off of him and informed him that it was only because he was delivering my passport so we could adopt a little girl from China....hahaha!

I can't remember if I mentioned it before, but, there is something about ladybugs in relation to Chinese adoptions. If I remember what I read correctly, ladybugs are a symbol of good luck. Crickets are also a symbol of good luck in China but as far as them having anything to do with adoption, I don't know. I do know that each day since we started the adoption process, there has been one mighty jumpy cricket to greet me in our home. Poor Tim now knows that every time he hears me yell out "AHHH!" that it's time for him to kill another one....hahaha.

Why do these Chinese babies have to bring about the increase of insects? At least it's not rodents!! :) :) :)

All we have to do now is wait a few more days for the Authentication process to be done on our dossier and have it sent back to us. Then, we'll send it to America World to be translated and off it goes to China!!!! Depending on the speed of everything (as usual), we could possibly have our dossier in China by Thanksgiving Day! Boy, you talk about two people being thankful!! ;)
