We are still collecting unwanted items over the next several weeks! We are happy to come by to pick items up, and there are still plenty of boxes to spare- we can drop empty ones off for you to use and pick them up when you are ready for us. And...I think we will need a few more tables, so if you have folding tables or card tables you are willing to lend us for the yard sale April 26, please let us know!
Now about the process this yard sale is helping to fund! We are in that stage where unless you're adopting too, an explanation of where we are pretty much doubles as a cure for insomnia- it's cool, I understand ;-) We are waiting on revisions for two pieces of paperwork to arrive before our social worker can write our home study. Once the home study is written, we move onto US immigration approval to do this adoption, and then the 13 documents that comprise a dossier to China go through three tiers of certification and authentication. That will wrap up the first of the three big sections of the adoption- getting our dossier to China (DTC).
While we wait this part of the process out, I'm savoring the time I have with our sweet girl. Not only because I know our time as just the three of us is finite, but because she is just growing so fast! I'm enjoying watching the little girl she's becoming, but I sure wish we could do this in slow-mo! She was such a baby when we met her, and now she's such a little girl now! Amazing.
