Papers Going to CCAA!

We got the email today that the Consulate in Guangzhou has signed off on our Letter of Acceptance and sent it to the Chinese Adoption Authorities!!! (Technically this is called the "2nd Letter of Acceptance and is also called Article 5.) This is the last piece of paper they need to start work on our Travel Authorization. (This also means the Consulate accepted our DS-230 form, which is Brooke's visa application for entering the US.)
Usually our agency is VERY careful/conservative about estimating wait times, and they have given us a 2-3 week estimate for TA. China is still very upset about the swime flu and several provinces are refusing to let families travel to get their children. Henan is not on the list so far... I have NO idea what will happen, so we'll just have to take it day by day. BUT - with any luck, we should be traveling in June!
