Children’s Hope International is proud to announce the arrival of 8 referrals for our 02/17/06 LID families. All of the referrals were beautiful little girls from the Jiangxi Province that ranged in age from 8 to 13 months, with one referral being 3 years, 5 months old. The referrals also included one set of twins. The family that received the 3 year old requested 0-18 months though the referral fell with the CCAA age guidelines. These families waited 33 long months from log in date to referral. We expect these families to travel in about 8 weeks.
Congratulations to these families and all our China families who have moved up in line!
Children’s Hope International’s next log in date is 03/02/06.
I received the announcement above last week. This batch of referrals started with February 16th and went through February 17th. A two day batch. It's discouraging, to say the least, but it also "is what it is". So, there are now 21 days left to match to get to us! I don't know if the CCAA will be able to maintain their 6 day average as they finish matching February and start March, but if they did we would probably receive our referral in the March 2009 batch . That's only 4 batches away! That's exciting. It is also exciting to think that the next time our agency receives referrals, it will be for March families. What a thrill that will be!

Mary, I'm soooo excited for you! You will for sure get her hopefully by Spring Break or for sure before summer break. You guys are going to have the best vacations next year with your sugar plum!
4 batches away.... that would be awesome. fingers and toes crossed!
Yes - lots of fingers (and toes) crossed!
You know, I sometimes feel for the people who are starting this process just now - and how long they will have to wait.
Love,
