A door closes
So.
DotterSecunda will not be Chinese.
We were informed today that due to the sturm und drang a year and a half ago, China will not let us adopt for a few more years (unspecified amount of time).
Oh, there are other options. We'll find something, I'm sure.
But right now, even though we knew intellectually that this was a distinct possibility given the current tightening of requirements to adopt from China, it's tough. It's very different to think something is a possibility, and to be bluntly told, "Nope, sorry, no can do."

I am so sorry that your second daughter will not be Chinese...or rather, that your plan to build your family needs to be changed. I cannot imagine how you are feeling, but wanted you to know that I am here sending you hugs and support. Keep us posted, and I hope you are well. (((((((cheesy but very sincere hugs)))))))))))))))))))
