Adoption Update

We have started working on our dossier, which is a pile of paperwork we create and/or obtain. Each document we gather or create has to be notarized, certified, and authenticated -   to certify a document we have to send it to the Secretary of State who will verify the Notary Public's name, after which we send everything to the appropriate Chinese Consulate/Embassy to verify the Secretary of State's name. Once all of our documents have been "sealed" (notarized, certified and authenticated) they will go to China for review.  We have a lot of work ahead of us, but knowing that little Ying Rong is waiting, patiently, on the other end, keeps us motivated!
