Lydia's Passport arrived

Lydia's passport arrived without much ado. We had the girl's awesome Chinese teacher translate Lydia's Chinese adoption certificate into English. We then sent the original adoption certificate along with the translation and had the passport within the week.

Now if only we can get our Letter of Acceptance from the Chinese officials. It can take as short as 35 days to as long as 120 days plus. Since our agency has not been able to track our dossier with the Chinese liason, we don't know our exact log-in-date yet. I'm guessing September 1st, give or take some days. That puts us at around 42 days.
