Great News!

Friday (the fifth), we received the approval from USCIS to adopt Matthew . This was really exciting news for our family - if they were to say "no" we would not be able to adopt Matthew. Thank you to everyone who has been praying for our family and the adoption of Matthew. Now, our agency will translate all of our paperwork and send it to Beijing. The Chinese government will match Matthew to our family and we will travel to Matthew's hometown of Changsa to do more paperwork and hopefully be able to visit the orphanage he came from. After further steps are completed in Changsha, we will go to Guangzhou to get him a visa. From there he can legally travel to America. Please continue to praythat these next steps will go smoothly.

God is so great and has been so faithful to our family!
