This post is for Patricia!

Get this, I do a search for "Down in the Dumps" picture and I get this one. Put a smile on my face, let me tell you!

Why "Down in the dumps?" Well, I'm checking the usual discussion groups and I come across a post about sending packages to China. It seems that you are supposed to keep packages to a shoebox size, as the mail carriers over in China ride bikes or are on foot. If the package is too big, then the orphanage staff have to go and pick it up... and most don't go and get it. Well, wouldn't that have been nice to know about a week or so ago. That package of snowsuits will just sit there then and no one will benefit from it.

We received our package from Formons, outlining the next step we have to do for the adoption including paperwork with Immigration. Didn't have much time to look through it last night, but Greg tried to fill out the online form and gave up after a while - figure he better look at the guide first, before filling out a bunch of pages that he can't save. So I guess we have passed a hurdle, since we got a package of more paperwork to complete. Waiting to hear about DTC/LID... hopefully for Christmas.
