We just recieved the news that our LID is 1/14/09. It took a little longer than I hoped for (22 days) but I'm not complaining. Beggars can't be choosers, right? I fiqured it out and our new LID puts us on day 49 of our wait for LOA!
Hi Heather! I'm Amy-Hope's mommy- and a former Xingfu mom! I think that I wrote before and told you that most likely Hope and Cooper were together in Wuxi! Anyway---I just wanted you to know that we have a LID of 1/13/09 for our baby boy waiting in Chongqing---so we could meet up in Changzhou!! I will be following your progress--and can't wait till the LOA's start rolling in for us!!:-) By the way--I put Sam's website on the Homeland thread so you can follow us too if you want!!
Congrats!!! Amy Dinello mommy to 6!! 5 @ home...one waiting for his mama!!
In Chinese mythology the dragon is a divine creature that brings families abundance, prosperity and good fortune. The Chinese often consider themselves "the descendants of the dragon." As for elephants, well, we happen to live in the deep South and met while studying at the University of Alabama - Roll Tide! Alabama's mascot is Big Al, a rather friendly-looking pachyderm.
But the dragon and elephant have merged in a most unlikely way. You see, in addition to having two biological children, we have adopted three amazing children from China. Now we are a family of seven, our experiences chronicled on these pages. Read on to hear the day-to-day ramblings of this Southern family...
I've been married to my college sweetheart for 19 years and am the mother of 5 incredible kids, 3 of whom were born in China. I'm a retired cop (that never really looked like a cop) who currently spends her days wiping noses, driving carpool, and cheering multiple kids on from the sidelines. I love my life and sometimes can't believe that I've really got it this good. Because of that, I thank God for His amazing grace each and every day.
