May 20, 2010: We decided for sure we wanted to start the adoption process.
June 5, 2010: After much research we chose CCAI as our adoption agency and sent in our application.
June 10, 2010: CCAI accepted us into their program.
June 14, 2010: We saw Grace's picture on CCAI's Waiting Child photo listings and chose her to be our daughter!! - For anyone who might be interested this is where our adoption differs greatly from most, and why it has gone so much quicker than usual. The wait for a healthy baby from China is currently four years. However there are many older children and children with mild to more severe special needs available at all times. A match with a child with special needs can take up to a year - but often is much quicker. We absolutely fell in love with Grace through her pictures and reading her file. Even if it wasn't for the wait, we would have gone this route.
June 28, 2010 We received pre-approval from China.
