61 Days and Counting...

That's how long we have been waiting for our Letter of Approval (LOA) from China.

Technically, we spent the first nine days waiting for Pre-Approval (PA), which means we have really only been waiting for 52 days.

For that matter, we didn't know we had PA until October 19, which was 14 days into our wait. So that means we have been waiting for 47 days.

But no matter how I try to slice it up, we are still 61 days into our wait since we officially decided to adopt Yintao. Two entire months.

The average wait times right now are somewhere in the neighborhood of 75 days from LOI to LOA, so we are still two weeks under average, but that doesn't change my strong desire to get on a plane tomorrow.

I know I said I wouldn't worry until after Christmas, but I don't know how much longer I can hold it off.
