Red Couch Photo and Chinese New Years

We have four families coming home this week from China with their newest family members.  Here they are on the infamous red couch!  (Note: if you are reading this from the yahoo group, please go to the blog at   ftiachina.blogspot.com to view this photo.)  We will have 4 families leaving for China right after Chinese New Year.

This week a new shared list of waiting children came out and we had 3 successful matched and they’ve all received their PAs!  We also received another PA this week, making a total of 4.  Congratulations to these families on being one step closer to their new children!

For those of you that adopted in 2010, here is an informative video explaining the Adoption Tax Credit:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQryETwRziA&feature=youtu.be&a

Next week will be the start of the Chinese New Year holiday in China.  Most offices in China will be closed from February 2nd through the 9^th.

Xin Nian Kuai Le!!!!!  (Happy Chinese New Year!!!!!)
