The DiMedio Family

We started this journey as a family a few years ago in search of a daughter, and a sister for our boys. Our hearts led us to the China adoption program, and we had that dossier well underway when the allure of Nepal became too great. We switched programs for what amounted to lots of paperwork and stress driven headaches. Finally, we listened to that little voice inside; it was leading us back to China. Little did we know at the time, that it was all part of the bigger plan. That plan which brought us to just the right place, at just the right time to meet our Anna. Anna Mei who was just waiting to meet her brother's Christopher, Alex, and Wil...who have been waiting not so patiently to meet her!

TRAVEL APPROVAL!!!!

At Last!!!!

We are officially approved to travel to China!

We fly out of Newark on March 10 for Beijing.
After a few days adjusting to the time change and sightseeing at the Great Wall, The Summer Palace, and the Forbidden City, we travel the few hours by car to our provincial meeting set for March 14th...Gotcha Day!  March 14th is the day our daughter meets and becomes a part of our family forever.

Then it is back to Beijing for a few more days. A short in-country flight will take us to Guangzou.   Our official visa appointment at the US Consulate is on Monday, March 21.  On this day, Anna Mei will be sworn in as a US citizen.  A few more days of bonding, sightseeing, and medical appointments, and we fly home on March 24.

Time to get her room ready!  Time to pack!
We are sooo excited.
