Pre-Appoval!!

I have not posted much with this adoption because I have been trying not to dwell on other peoples time lines like I did last time.
But I do read posts and I still get that tingly feeling everytime someone post a new referral... That Ya Hoo excitement everytime someone gets out of PGN, and teary eyed when someone is home with their child. Just want you to know I support everyone, just quietly this time around. Anyhow we received pre-approval yesterday and we did not even know our DNA was done. So I am starting to get the feeling that things may go differently and possibly even quickly this time!

Jolene,

I was looking at your timeline on your signature and I have a question. Was Logan referred to you on 4-1 of 2003 or 2004? I thought it was more recently than that.

Jolene,

Congratulations!!! I am so so happy for you. I have been hoping things would go faster for you this time around. You'll have him home in no time now!!! Keep us posted...I'll be waiting for your OUT post. And I bet Noah is excited that he will soon have a brother/playmate for life!
