The Brown Envelope Arrives!


So we received the elusive brown envelope, and I call it that because only half of all China adoptive families receive it for some reason. This usually shows up sometime after a file is received (and logged in? Hello, we're waiting to find out already...) in the CCAA office. We received it yesterday and we know that there is a case number, and it contains all the paperwork we'll need in China. Stuff for the medical exam, actual in-country adoption procedure etc. It is from the US consulate in Guangzhou. I really don't know what to make of it, but hey, at this point anything is good news.
