Yay! We received word that our application is approved--we should be getting the approval form I-171-H in 2-3 days!
Why are we so excited about this news, you ask? Well, it means that we can send our dossier to be submitted, translated, and then be invited over to Bella's country to start the adoption proceedings. We hope to travel at the beginning of June!
We are very happy with this news, but at the same time, a little scared! The month of May will be very busy raising the rest of the funds needed, getting the house ready, making child arrangements, and on and on.......
Doesn't this sound similar to being pregnant? Guess I'm in the ninth month now.....
Love, Paula

Congrats! We'll keep praying for you all. That's super exciting... glad to hear the "paper pregnancy" is almost over. You're the woman everyone is jealous of... the one who actually loses weight during pregnancy :-)
