Thank you so much for your kind words and donations since we announced our provisional approval of Theo's adoption. Our current status is waiting for approval of immigration paperwork. Because Theo has a heart condition that requires additional surgery, we have asked that his paperwork be expedited. We are hoping for a faster turn around than the traditional 90 days. Since we are pushing for a quick approval, that means we also will be trying to raise funds as quickly as possible as well. I apologize for all the postings you will see but only a little bit because we truly believe in bringing Theo home as quickly as possible. :) If you know someone who might be interested in donating, please feel free to share our link. We are currently trying to meet our goal of $8400 to be ready for the next step. Thank you!!!

I also want to share information about the organization that has been helping Theo - Morning Star Foundation https://morningstar.foundation/china-project/. Their goal is to help families with medical needs they may not be able to afford otherwise and also to care for orphans with severe medical needs as well. Meredith Toering, who works with these children and helps to provide the care they need through surgeries, rehabilitation, etc., is AMAZING and you can follow her stories on instagram @meredithtoering or the organization itself @morningstarfoundation.
