LOG IN DATE

We are excited to share that we received our LID on October 12, 2015.  

LID (Log In Date), which means that all our paperwork has been received, reviewed, and approved by the China Center for Children's Welfare and Adoption (CCCWA).

And....we move forward to get matched with our little one.

The matching is done by our China team who has studied our files in detail and will prayerfully match us with our child. 

This is such an important time to ask everyone to pray for us, the China team, and for our precious boy.

The matching usually occurs once a month, but sometimes it can be twice a month.  Once the children's files are 'released', there is somewhat of a frenzy amongst agencies from all over, to match children with their forever families.  I cannot even imagine this intense and extremely important process.  There is only seconds in which social workers have to prayerfully match a child with their families.  

Once a match is made, our social worker will contact us and we will get what information is available , photos, videos, medical information, etc...on that child.  We have 24-48 hours to make our decision on that first file.   I know that if my husband was sitting here next to me, he'd ask every reader to pray for me BIG TIME, as he knows that my heart will be tugged in a mighty way once I see the precious face of the first match.   

We have to be prepared that the first match may or may not be our child.   We chose to trust God throughout and we pray that God brings little Gus to us accordingly to His will and purpose.

Thank you all for following along, it means a lot.
