Congratulations, I am sure she will be a great addition to your family. I am traveling out tomorrow to escort our new 11-year old daughter home on Friday, so I know how exciting it is. The wait while we visited her and pushed ICPC paperwork for the last two months has been killer. She didn't want us to leave her either and is so excited to be coming home.

Adoption of waiting teenagers is getting more common, but each one is a tremendous victory for them. So many teenagers have lost hope and are not even trying to be adopted, I'm glad your daughter could stay hopeful and that her need will be met.

Congrats.
