Waiting and waiting and waiting.....

So today is day 65 of our LOA wait : (  It's not totally unexpected since the average wait is around 70 days, but truthfully it is frustrating since I know many families whose paperwork was logged in after ours have already received their LOA.  The other kink in the road is that the last week of December China upgraded their computer systems.  It seems that there is still a lot of information missing from the new systems and agencies are not able to get updates on paperwork status as easily.  Early last week our agency asked their in China coordinator to try to get an update on us and several other families that should have LOA any day, but so far they haven't been able to get an update.  So right now we are just crossing our fingers that one day this week our final LOA magically appears at the agency.  Once we get the final LOA we are looking at roughly 6-8 weeks until we travel, so hopefully we will still be able to travel in March.  Fingers Crossed.

On a fundraiser note....our coffee fundraiser is now closed.  Thank you to everyone who ordered.  We are down to only 27 pieces that need sponsored on our puzzle fundraiser and on the 20th we will launch an online silent auction.  Phew....chugging right along on that front.  We also have started an essential oils fundraiser.  If you purchase from the link below we get a very generous portion of the proceeds.  Thanks for following along.  Hopefully we will have good news this week!!
