No, I realize it’s July but in the adoption world it’s November 6th, 2006. Yippeee! That means we are 21 log-in days away from CCCWA reaching our LID of 11-27-06. So that means we are probably not next, next, but next, next in the line up of referrals! Woowoo, they have finally made it to November. It’s been so long as we’ve watched the months creep by. I remember watching as March 2006 was referred over a period of 7-8-9 months, maybe more, shoot I can't remember now. I tried to block it out- it was very painful to endure.
Now we are finally in the month of November and ironically, the 15th of this month marked 6 years for us mailing off our application and paperwork to immigration for the very first time. And it was 6 years later to the day, CCCWA began referring November families- WOW, it sure has been a long 10-12 month referral time frame. I thought the zodiac was the only difference between our calendar and the Chinese calendar. They must count their days and months a little differently than we do, hee hee.
In May the CCCWA changed their computer system and so there haven’t been any referrals since April. Those poor families that were “up next” have been waiting all of May and June and not known when the computer system would be working properly. But their day finally arrived and phone calls were finally made all over the US, Canada, and Europe matching families to their precious babies. Congratulations Everyone!!
