About Us

Thank you for visiting us! This documents our adoption journey to Bella Catherine Long Luoyue Pearson, in China. Why Chocolate Noodles? Well, we’ve learned that Bella's favorite foods are noodles and candy. Both, Dale and Rachel LOVE chocolate and Beth chose to fast from chocolate until she can share it with Bella. We would be honored if you would follow along as we travel to China to complete our family.

Delays, delays, delays... We sent an email to Nightlight asking if there is any reason to be concerned about the amount of time it is taking for our LOA to be approved. We reread some emails indicating several families were taking about 8 weeks and others 6-10 weeks. We are in week 10 now. We’re anxious and wanting to know that everything is actually on track as expected.

They replied that they have no concerns. Everything is behind in China due to the long holiday in early October. They expect approval anytime.

We spoke with the adoption representative last week and she said our paperwork has been in process in China since 10/25/11. She expects us to get news of our notice that we have a Letter of Acceptance any time now. She also said they will probably expedite these last two phases for us meaning we could receive notice and be in China before the end of the semester.

Waiting 9 weeks and three days… but who’s counting? Praying we get news from China TODAY!

Made the initial contact with the travel agent referred to us by friends. They also adopted from China and were very pleased with their travel agent.
