God Bless Texas!

US Rep. Lamar Smith's (TX) office has really helped us out. Bob met with his office yesterday to see if we could come to some conclusion. He took the pictures of Addison in her crib. The lady asked Bob, "This can't be where they sleep, there is no mattress." I think seeing those pictures put some perspective of this whole issue.
USCIS told the Congressman's office that once they received our updated homestudy addendum, they would send the paperwork to the US Consulate in China. We didn't hear back from her Friday, but I imagine that if they hadn't already sent it, it is on its way. We should be traveling as planned. We just have to have final word from the Consulate that they received our fingerprints. This is great news, but please keep your fingers crossed that the Consulate receives the information quickly.
The most important things is getting Addison home. We are still going to look into the mishandling of adoption cases by the USCIS Fairfax office so other families won't be put through what we have been.
