Making Headway!




Our Agency just sent the following update:
On November 5, 2007, Children's Hope received 10 China referrals. These referrals were for our nine 12/5/05 log in date families and one 9/26/06 Chinese expedited family. They are 10 beautiful little girls! They are from the Guangxi, Guangdong, Jiangxi and Liaoning provinces. They range in age from 6.5 to 13 months, and one 3 year 7 month old (Her parentswere presented her referral in our St. Louis office and they said, "They are thrilled and she is so beautiful!") These families waited 23 long months from log in date to referral. The Chinese expedited families waited 14 months from log in date to referral. We expect these familiesto travel in about 8 weeks.

Well, they are slowly making their way to our dossier! :) It is also our 20 month LID anniversary today!

I can't believe you actually posted this on your blog before I had a chance to post it on mine!! You've been such a busy girl these days. We are one step closer. Despite the fact that this was only a 8 day batch (I really wanted it to be in double digits), I refuse to let go of the hope that they will finish Dec in 3 batches.
By the way, when are we getting our pedicures??

You know, I can't even imagine how difficult this wait has been for you and all the other families waiting for their first child. I am in this for the second time, and I know I have this long wait ahead, but I have my spicy girl now. You will appreciate motherhood in a way that many mothers do not. I don't mean that in an ugly way; I just know that it will be different for you.
