The Waiting Game Picks Up

Been a while since I updated, but the good news now is that things are picking up on the adoption journey (who would have though, right?).  Last month, they started processing dossiers from the month of September, 2006!!  While they only got to September 4, they are still FINALLY in September.

What this means, I will most certainly receive a referral THIS YEAR!!!!   I know, I've said that before, but unless they stop completely, I am very close.  Right now they are processing just a couple days at a time...there are so few people still waiting, that there are very few referrals on any given day.  Referrals for May will most likely come this week--each batch gives a better view of how much they are processing and when they will get to me, but best bet is July or August...coming really quick.  Note that the July or August would be for the referral then we (Aunt Susan and I) would travel to China about 3 months later in October or November.  Unless something drastic happens, Hazel will be home with her family for Christmas this year!

HOLD ON TO YOUR HATS PEOPLE!!!!
