Latest Rumor

The latest rumor on the Rumor Queen site is that matching has begun but no word yet on a cut-off date. Think double digits...big batch!! I imagine they will get through at least 1/26 & 1/27 and with the Chinese New Year having been 1/28 - 2/5 in 2006 we should see a February date!! It won't be due to a large batch but we'll take it!! Keep those prayers and positive thoughts focussed on a big batch!!

Rumors

Well, there's nothing to report yet...the biggest concern is if China will even match babies this month because of the Olympics. There's speculation that the CCAA will be closed during the Olympics so if they don't get out a batch before the Olympics then most likely they won't have any during either. I hope this is not the case. We are very hopeful and focusing on the next set of referrals being made by early in August and it will be a big batch!! Think double digits everyone!!!

Dad Update

Thank you and keep those prayers coming!! My Dad is doing better this morning. The doctor went down his throat with a scope and found a "naked" blood vessel which he took care of at the time. He lost a lot of blood so they're giving him blood to help him get his strength back. Now he just needs to recover...please keep sending those positive thoughts and prayers his way and my mom's too! thank you!!!

Please Say a Prayer for My Dad

My Dad is not feeling well and I would appreciate your positive thoughts and prayers to help him get better. We're at the hospital now and they're doing tests to see what they can do to help him. I know he will get better and be back home soon. Please pray for him and my mom too! Thank you!!

June Rumor

Well, it's not official yet but from what we've been told by our agency and from the Rumor Queen it's pretty safe to say referrals made in June were made through 1/25/06. That's only 3 days of referrals since the 21st & 22nd were weekend days in '06. But I guess we'll take what we can get! At the rate the referrals have been going so far this year we expect our referral in either February or March of 2009 which will mark 3 years from our log in date! Ugh!! We were hoping they would have finished January this month! It's taking a long time to get through January!! Fortunately the Chinese New Year celebration in 2006 was from 1/28-2/5 that year so we will fly past those dates as there should not be anyone logged in! So if they can get through at least 2 days of referrals this month we'll be technically into February...that will be great!
