Unfortunately, it is slow going in Atlanta right now. It took us four months after application (2 1/2 months after submitting homestudy) to receive our 171-H. Hopefully things have started speeding up!

HI there!

I think I met you last year at the Marriott while we were there visiting our daughter. I remember an absolutely adorable little guy named Ryker...how many adorable Rykers could there be??

Are you adopting another child? How fabulous!

God bless,
Lisa
