You are officially DTC!!!!

YIPEE!!!  Best email I have received all month! For everyone who doesn't know what that means, I will explain....
 D-dossier (which is all the paperwork you had to gather to send to China)
 T- to
 C- China

Which means...all of our paperwork is on the way to China!!! Once received there, it will be logged into their system and we will be able to find our son!!!  There are ALOT of unknowns so PLEASE pray for guidance and for GOD'S WILL to be done! I KNOW He has something BIG for us because everything has moved so quickly! I just cant wait to see it all unfold and see what He has in store for us! Don't worry, I will share as soon as I know! I can not begin to explain to you all the feelings I am experiencing right now. Excited, happy, nervous, anxious, anticipating and wondering.

Wonder when we will find our boy?

Nervous that we see God's will and NOT ours.

Happy that everything we have been doing for 3 months, is on its way to China.

Anticipating and Excited that we will have a miracle from the other side of the world in our arms someday.

Anxious that I want to see his sweet face and let him know his FOREVER FAMILY is on their way!

PLEASE be praying that ..
we have guidance and that we don't miss what God wants us to do. I can't even imagine reviewing files and saying you don't want a child. So I want the one God has for us to be the first and only file we see.

NOTHING will hold up our paperwork or what God is already doing in China to get us to our son.

Peace for me...those of you that KNOW me...know that I am OCD and do not like to be out of control. But with this process I don't want to be in control...I want GOD to be.

Thank you for your support and I will keep you posted as this amazing journey unfolds!

Love,
Charm
