The CCAA website has changed! LID's 6/16-6/28/05

Hi everyone!

It has been awhile since I posted, but I always appreciate reading everyone's great ideas and feedback. Just wanted to share the great news that this morning about 3:05 p.m. in Beijing, they updated the website and DHL picked up the package of referrals headed out across the globe.

The fact that they matched June 16-28th is great news for everyone, as it is a marked improvement over recent months.

For all those still waiting, hang in there! We are LID 6/16 and missed the cut-off by one day last month. Although that was really difficult for a few days, we have had so much peace knowing that our turn was coming soon. We really will all get there.

Congratulations to all those families who will be receiving referrals in the next few days!

HOORAY!

Congratulations!!! I can only imagine how excited you must be, the first place I went to this morning was our agency's website and someone posted up to 6/28, I was so happy that it almost brought tears to my eyes, it is alot more progress for the CCAA, not knowing how far there going to cover is so hard for everyone, I wish they would of went to the 30th, I'm so sorry to the families who have those LID's...........now we can only hope they will continue doing this amount of LID's or even more would be so much better! I told my husband we are getting closer: -) I will definetly follow your journey to China

Amy,

I am hearing people saying that the referral packages should arrive on Monday or Tuesday at most agencies

Congratulations! I know it has been a long wait for you. The time between referral and travel will fly by, and soon you will be on your way to pick up your precious daughter!
