The news today is that we finally know that our LID is 10/7/2008. Our agency said that the wait time for the LOA has been around 90 days. That means we should have our LOA around the first week of January. Knowing this is great because I have felt like I was going crazy just waiting. Now, the realization is that the time may seem like forever waiting, but it will be here before I know it. Last night I had a dream that we had our travel approval and we were leaving for the airport, packed up and ready to go. Then, I lost my purse which had all our money in it and our passports. We had to turn around and go back to the resturaunt where we had just been. I interrupted everyones dinner and said "excuse me...but this is extremely immportant...i have to find my purse...we are leaving for China to adopt our daughter and if you are a CHristian pray that I find my purse." Then, I found my purse and a man gave me $100 for our trip. Next, I realized that I had not gotten our Visas or Jordyn's pasport or told our agency our travel plans and I was absolutely panicked. Well, lets just say that I woke happy that is was all a crazy dream and, I realize that I have alot of pent up anxiety for sure. Yes...i think my subconcious is working over tme to make sure I don't forget those little details. I am glad to know our LID. That is just an important date that gives some meaning that something is happening. Now, I'm thinking I need to really get busy saving money and fund raising. We still need the orphanage donation fee which is now $5,000.00 and our airfare money and travel expenses. I am just praying for God to meet our needs. So that is my update for now. I am so ready to bring little Jailynn home.
