Hi All,
Well, Margaret was expecting updated pictures of Anna with her updated measurements, but instead we got an email from our lawyer. It appears that we got a "Previo" (kick out) from PGN. Our lawyer said it was minor ( a date) that he corrected already, and that he was going to resubmit us on Friday (10/19). Margaret emailed our lawyer back for more details, in regards when we actually got kicked out and what date needed to be corrected. Anyhow, we are back in PGN today. I also checked with the lawyer to see if we have to start from the beginning or do we start from where we left off? Allegedly on the yahoo groups, they are saying once you get kicked out you start all over.
Hopefully PGN will be kinder to us this time around and approve us quickly.
Please continue to pray, wish, fingers crossed - once again whatever works for you, that our Anna comes home real soon.
thanks for you continued support.
