WE ARE FINALLY ON THE MOVE!

WELL WE ARE NOT MOVING FAST BUT AT LEAST WE HAVE HAD SOME MOVEMENT IN THE ADOPTION. THE CCAA FINALLY UPDATED THEIR SITE THAT THEY HAVE REVIEWED ALL DOSSIERS THAT WERE LOGGED IN BEFORE 3/22/2006! OUR LOG IN DATE IS 3/15/2006 SO THAT MEANS WE ARE THROUGH. AND WE WERE NOT ASKED ANY QUESTIONS. WE WERE SO WORRIED BECAUSE ALOT OF PEOPLE THAT ARE ASKED QUESTIONS WHILE IN REVIEW DO NOT GET THE REFERRAL WITH THE LID GROUP, IT MAY BE A MONTH OR MORE AFTER THERE LID GROUP GETS THROUGH BEFORE THEY GET IT! AND A FEW PEOPLE HAVE BEEN TURNED DOWN IN REVIEW. BUT WE ARE THROUGH!!! SO WHERE TO WE GO FROM THE REVIEW ROOM? WE ARE SUPPOSED TO GO TO THE MATCHING ROOM BUT I HAVE A FEELING THERE IS THIS REALLY LONG HALL THAT THE DOSSIERS WAIT IN BEFORE THEY GET TO MATCHING.(AT LEAST THAT IS WHAT I HAVE PICTURED IN MY MIND)
CCAA HAS ISSUED REFERRALS NOW FOR ALL PEOPLE THAT WERE LOGGED IN BY 10/13/2005. SO THERE ARE 5 MONTHS AND 2 DAYS OF LIDS BEFORE US OR 153 DAYS BUT HEY WHO IS COUNTING? :-) I HAVE STOPPED TRYING TO GUESS WHEN WE WILL GET OUR REFERRAL. SOME PEOPLE SAY BY DECEMBER. AT THIS POINT I AM OK WITH THAT. I JUST WANT HER PICTURE IN THE YEAR 2007! THEY SAY THAT OCTOBER IS A BIG MONTH AND NOVEMBER IS HUGE, BUT THAT DECEMBER, JANUARY AND FEBRUARY ARE SMALL. MARCH IS BIG AT THE END BUT WE ARE RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE. SO MAYBE THE NEXT TWO MONTHS WILL TAKE A WHILE AND THEN THE REST WILL FLY BY? WHO KNOWS, I HAVE STOPPED THINKING THERE WILL BE A SPEED UP.
BUT AT LEAST WE ARE MAKING PROGRESS.
ITS WEIRD TO THINK THAT MAYBE RIGHT NOW JADEN'S DOSSIER IS BEING COLLECTED AND HER FINDING AD BEING PLACED IN THE PAPER IN CHINA TO SEE IF HER BIO PARENTS WANT TO RECLAIM HER. AND THEN HER DOSSIER WILL BE MATCHED WITH OUR DOSSIER, THEY WILL LOOK AT OUR PASSPORT PHOTOS AND FIND THE PERFECT LITTLE REDHEADED, BLUE EYED CHINESE BABY! (OF COURSE IF THAT IS THE CASE WE WILL NEVER GET OUR REFERRAL, SO I GUESS SHE CAN LOOK LIKE HER DADDY!) :-)
