Happy New Year!

Here we are at the dawn of 2008.
This time last year, we were in the middle of the mad dash to get our dossier finished. We were keeping busy with it and really made pretty good progress. By Jan. 17, we had everything certified and authenticated but our I-171H, which we still were waiting on from USCIS.

Now, we are coming up in a few days on 9 months since our LID. The pace really has slowed down, obviously. The scramble to get everything for our dossier kept us busy and focused. Now, we count off the days, checking in with various sites, checking RQ to see what the latest rumors are, but the intensity is not there. There's no more paperwork to get done, no more lists to check off, no more FedEx packages to track. How many more months we have of this, who can tell, other than it's going to be a bunch.

We just want to wish everyone a safe, happy and prosperous new year. To all of those who have made the trip to China and are home with their children, enjoy them. Enjoy every moment of it. For those of you like us, hang in there. The wait can't go on forever.
