Referrals have begun! A family on the yahoo adoption groups received a referral yesterday! Rumor has it that 25 or more matches have been made and some have been mailed (that's snail mail--from Nepal), and now one has been received. Our agency believes that we may be part of that first group of matches, but they can't be sure, and they can't be sure when we'll receive word if we were. It's definitely exciting. I'm on high alert until we know something more.
Our home visit was put off until this week. I won't be able to take the day off work to prepare for it, but I have all day today to straighten the house up a bit better. It's pretty clean, I've just got to do something with some of the clutter we seem to collect on a daily basis.
My friend Melanie and her husband are on their way RIGHT NOW to pick up their daughter in Taiwan. I'm so excited for them. She's an adorable little infant girl. They've been working on their adoption for three years or more, and I can't wait to see them get home with her at long last.

Oh, Daphne, that is so exciting! My fingers are crossed for you.
ReplyDeleteI am very excited for you, I too am an educator and was blessed to be a parent by adopting from Vietnam last June. I am thinking great thoughts for both of you, and can't wait to hear you have a referral!
