The latest rumor from China is that the CCAA wait is up to families who were logged in on and before May 10, 2006. In case you've forgotten, our log-in date is May 16, 2006. That means were 6 (SIX) dates away.
SIX DAYS.....which equals about two months in China adoption land, but let's say that's true......TWO MONTHS????? We're only maybe two months away from referral?????? And then add a few more months for travel approval and then.....!
WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN?
Oh, yes. It's taken five years.....then why am I so ill-prepared??
I have a very vivid memory of our very first informational meeting about China adoption in 2005. We were told that the wait times may go up and down, but China is stable. That at the end of this process, "you WILL have a baby. You just might have to stick it out, but have faith. It WILL happen." The wait time back then was 10 months, and the concern was that we'd have to wait over a year. I never could have predicted the massive slow-down and the road our lives have taken since, but those words have stuck with me and have given me hope. (Thank you, Melissa L.)
And now, we're on the cusp of a new adventure and a new addition to our hearts.
SIX DAYS, PEOPLE!

My doctor is actually on his way to China next week to hopefully meet and take home his new daughter. he had been waiting for some approval of something or another by the consulate and was just cleared for travel. He and his wife adopted his son from China a few years back and I'm so happy they are adding to their family. Best of luck to you Nora, and please continue to keep us updated!
