So to update on where we are at in our adoption journey...
We have our initial approval from USCIS (U.S Citizenship and Immigration Services) which is the preliminary approval notice for our new child to come to the United States. Through this process, our son will officially become a citizen as soon as he touches down in America. We have also gotten our documents certified through the Sectretay of States office and now we are getting ready to send them off to the Chinese Consulate in Chicago to get everything authenticated. Then everything will be ready to be send to China!
