We've reached another milestone.

HOORAY! Another milestone has been reached. We're one step closer to completing our family!

On the CCAA website this morning, this update was posted. Our paperwork has been reviewed and entered into their system in China so the next step is the actual matching process. Our Login date is Nov 29, 2005 and they just matched files dated up to July 22, so we still have some waiting to go.

But at least our paperwork has passed the final hurdle and it's just a match that needs done now.

The weekly update from Children's Bridge didnt have much to say. Another group is leaving for China today. I don't think there's any local people in this group. They indicated in the newsletter that we should expect a 16 month wait. Things are running at about a 13 month wait for referrals right now.

We're off next Thursday for the annual Children's Bridge Regional Coordinators seminar in Toronto. We're hoping for some truthful explanations of timelines and what we should expect. A bit of good news would also be nice!

A long weekend will soon be here and we're selling all our junk in a yardsale tomorrow. It's amazing how much junk 2 people can accumulate. OK, mostly my junk.
