23588754.jpgThis will be the date (October 9th, 2006 our LID date) that we shall go by from now on.  Why did I make a fuss a month ago about our 1 year DTC (Documents To China) well it’s taking sooooooooooooo long we needed to make noise about something.  See we already had Morgan for over 4 months when her one year DTC date anniversary rolled around.  Waiting is something new for us.  Thank God we have Morgan otherwise we would be losing our minds waiting.  Morgan, our can’t wait to be 4 year old is a great distraction, but even Morgan is getting anxious for her Mei Mei (Little Sister).  Morgan doesn’t understand why it takes so long to get a sister and frankly I don’t either.  As we try to explain the complexities of the world to Morgan she takes the simplistic view of “but why?” and right now I can’t answer that question.  All I do know is that when we (all three of us and my Mom) go to get Isabelle the waiting, frustration and anxiousness will get washed away in a matter of milliseconds and nothing else will matter.  So here’s to 1 year down and I know at least 1 more to go.  Tonight our neighbors are going to hate us since I have about 2000 fire crackers that will be lit to ward off bad spirits and and bring Good Luck to the Creighton family and to the future Mrs. Isabelle Creighton. 

Oh, update the last referral group waited 697 days that’s 24 months before they got their referral at that rate it will be September ‘08 before we get our referral, but remember we have an entire year to go anything can happen.
