Adoption Anniversery October 22 2008

Okay its official this is our adoption blog and as of October 22,2008 we are now
waiting for 19 months and one day for our very precious cargo in China.
Some days the wait seems incredibly long and other times I realize just how far we have come. There are rumors to abound that we have 19 months down and at least that much more to go.I however will continue to wear my Rose Colored Glasses on,and believe better than that. God has a plan for our family and that is that. Currently the people that are receiving their referrals have waited about 32 to 33 months for them. The last group of referrals covered the families waiting up until Feb 15Th 2006 and possibly some from February 16Th as well.
We have also heard rumors that the CCAC ( China Center for Adoptive Affairs ) are
almost thru processing the March 2007 LID ( Log In Date ) Documents or Dossiers.
This is great news since we only saw the box change to close out the February
Documents on October 8Th 2008. To me every step closer to showing that we are moving right along is okay with me. From here if our documents pass all inspections we should be in line to the Matching Room where a child or children will be matched with our families. Yes I said children because we have requested twins. It all started ,the day before our first home study when we received a mailing from Sears Photography Studios with two Asian Girls on the cover. Our Sweet Caroline told us this is what our babies are going to look like. She told us she wanted two babies , Later that evening when completing our interview with our Social worker we requested Twins as young and as healthy as possible.From that moment on we have believed and prayed for Twins with all our hearts.
James 1:6 in the bible states for us to ask in faith that he who asks in Faith
with no wavering. For the one who wavers is like the billowing surge at sea that is
blown hither and thither and tossed by the wind. Fro truly , let not such a person
imagine that he will receive anything he asks for from the Lord.

Caroline our Dear Daughter has set her mind on her TWO sisters and we have named
them Katie and Zoe We pray for their safety and health and good care giving until
we can bring them safely home in our arms.
