Pre-Approval!

Pre-approval or PA from China is a big deal.  It means they accepted our letter of intent (LOI) to adopt from China.  We received our PA on 4/9/13 for a 5 year old girl from China named Yuan Yuan.  We're told her name means "beautiful girl or woman".

I can't share too much information at this point.  First because we have to be careful not to cause any problem with China.  Second out of respect for privacy for our new daughter-to-be.

I will share a tiny photo of her- it is one of the first photos we saw.  We're not even sure how old she is in this picture or where it was taken.

Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress... (James 1:27)
