We received this email message from the USCIS in Accra, Ghana today:
Dear Murphy Crowson:
Your fingerprints have been cleared. Your application is being reviewed and we expect to provide you with the determination by the end of next week (i.e.10/23/2009)
Thank you,
USCIS, Accra
PTL! Pray that as they review our application for the second renewal that they will approve us again to adopt a precious little girl from China!

My non-profit recently published a new book on Chinese adoptive parenting that has some similar stories. “The Dragon Sisterhood: A Guide to Chinese Adoptive Parenting”.

Great news. We rejoice with you!
Blessings! Have a beautiful life in the light of God’s love! You already have it all!
All right. One step closer.
Murphy, Christine, Matthew, Stephen … such “blessed” news! Precious has been on my mind so much recently. This is good word. Mom
Praise God! This is exciting news! We’ll keep praying that all the puzzle pieces fall into place.
