Wow - if that is true (and I am waiting on confirmation that it is, as I have so far seen two 11/18 people post on RQ that they have gotten the call), then that means that I AM NEXT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!

Someone with a 21st LID posted that they recieved their refferal. Tracy and KFF YOU ARE NEXT!!!! I am so happy for everyone. I thought after last month I wouldn't be so emotional when refferals came. But I still am, I love seeing the babies that finally have families!

It looks official that the cutoff is the 21st. It must be dissappointing to miss it by one day, however, it must feel good to know that you are absolutely next!! What a long hard road this is. I can't wait until I can say that I'm next. I'm just hoping that it will be next year!!

Our agency email said referrals were up to 11/21. Congratulations to those who received them. To those who are next, I am so excited for you. It's a wonderful feeling isn't it??? Our little one came home almost two years ago (8/5/05) and it is amazing how fast that time goes. Thanks for sharing your stories and letting me relive my wonderful memories through you.
To all I wish you the best. Here's to quick TA's and all that baby shopping!!! Take care.

Thanks, everybody. In the scheme of things one month is nothing! More time to plan. Trace, I'm glad the time worked in your favor so you can meet your family.
