My Celia

Well, on August 7th I completed an application with my agency to consider a waiting child as a referral. On August 17, as we were leaving church, my agency called with a possible match. They knew I was actually only considering heart babies (either mild or repaired.) I had done a lot of research and felt good about the medical report. We locked the file as I had a cardiologist and pediatric cardiologist on stand by (both through 2 different friends in the medical field.) Both gave a good report and said that it looks like the surgery corrected everything for my Celia. I submitted my letter of intent on August 19, 2008 - on the 26 month anniversary of having my papers officially registered in China to start this long journey. I now must wait for Preapproval and Letter of Acceptance/Letter Seeking Confirmation. I have been asked to not post any pics or specific info about Celia until then. I can tell you the she is 15 months old right now and very beautiful...a sight for sore eyes. I will post pics and details once I receive my official approval. Hoping to hear something in the next week or 2. I am in love...again!
