LOI arrived, and Thomas' New Look

Our LOI document arrived in China Friday. It usually takes 6-8 weeks for them to reply, and then they're ready for the rest of your documents. Hopefully we'll have more ready for them by then.

We're not sure if this is because he looks different, because he smells different, or because she is afraid of the same thing happening to her.
