Sadly, "Referral Day" doesn't hold the same excitement for me as it once did. We are getting a little closer , if only an inch at a time. Although I appreciate our family and friends' genuine interest in our adoption, it is definitely not easy to have to explain the ever increasing wait. Why do I constantly feel compelled to have some kind of "good news" or a "good report" about the adoption at the ready?
Today, the CCAA sent referrals for families that were logged in on the waiting list through October 13*, 2005. So, let's consult the tote board, shall we? - Current wait is stable around 16 months** and we have 236 days of Log-ins to get through before it is our turn (they completed 16 days during this month)
*unconfirmed
**still expected to increase
rumor has it that the CCAA has been known to send out a quick batch of referrals just before they leave on their Lunar New Year holiday break (starting February 18 this year). So, say it with me . . . BRING ON THE REFERRALS!
