Today started out like any other day. I was at work and had sent an email to Angie to find out if she had called in an appointment to have my eyes checked. She sent it back with: LOA. My first thought was that she was using some kind of texting shorthand like Laugh Out Loud. Then it hit me, well sort of. This was the next step we were waiting on. I was thinking Logged on . . .whatever A meant. I called her. Of course her response was, "You have been through 3 other adoptions and don't know what LOA stands for."
It seems we are passed the translation stage. They went from there to review and have approved our adoption. Elana is officially our child. LOA stands for Letter of Acceptance. It is in the soft stage. China will send the official paperwork to the agency and they will send it to us. At this point, we will say we accept and the paperwork goes to the US government. Once logged, they will send us our confirmation which will go back to the agency and on to China. Then Travel Approval.
At this point, we will have 90 days to go get her. It is now time to go into overdrive. We have to get things out of the house, raise money, sell posters, etc.
