...and I'm just now writing my next entry. Procrastinating? Hmm, no...(well, maybe a little), but the reason I think I haven't written anything until now, is because I couldn't get myself to BELIEVE this is actually gonna happen. This rollercoaster ride of a wait for our kiddo has taken forever - 31 months and 12 days to be exact....
But now, as the China Center for Adoption Affairs (CCAA) is about to make its monthly announcement assigning referrals to waiting families, I THINK we're about to see a picture of our baby for the first time! I know this because our dossier (application to adopt) was sent to China and logged-in on December 5, 2005. And with that assigned date, we've been able to gauge where we are in "line". Last month, CCAA announced referrals all the way through November 30, 2005. So as you can see, we're getting close!
So here we are - just days from the next referral announcement. We invite you to read our blog and count down the days before Hubby and I meet our kiddo in China.
And oh yeah, holler back in the "Comments" section when you get a chance. Would be great to hear from ya.

We're keeping our fingers crossed! And just think: although it's been over 2-1/2 years, your real journey will begin the minute you're with your child, making the long wait seem just like a brief moment. ...
Hi Gene and Rick,
I'm so happy to read that your wait is almost over. We're on pins and needles here and can't wait for the day we receive the good news from you.
Keep us posted!
Love... Mike, Norma, and Maya
