June 6, 2006. A day of infamy. Today in history, June 6 1944 was D-Day. How appropriate.

Our 1st packet of paperwork has been FedExed to The Consulate-General of the People's Republic of China in Houston, TX.

We spent the morning at our local Kinkos making 160 photo copies. Also, we opened our very own FedEx Account! Which we found out is necessary for mailing back and forth to all the organizations involved. Of course, we get to foot the bills.

We remain in a state of confusion...not knowing if our paperwork is accurate enough to sail through to the next stage.
