		<description>I'm so hoping for good news......... I think my heart is skipping a beat.  To me, I'd feel so incredible if we could just get out of November..... If and when we do enter December, I'm thinking it's going to snowball from there.  Call it optimism, or merely my survival tactics, but we've continuously heard that November is tremendously huge, to enter December, it might feel as though we are flying through referrals, and when we do enter December, I just might feel as though we will REALLY get to see our baby some day, and sooner than later.....  my March '06 lid has felt like I was trying to go up to the second floor, but on the downward escalator........ I can see my Dossier at the top, but it just keeps getting further and further away.
I WANT TO GET TO THE SECOND FLOOR!!


I am truly happy for all of you that are next.........  CAN'T wait for this next round.</description>

		<description>reported elsewhere: A person in the Netherlands with an LID of Nov 25 was told they are NOT in this batch.  In past months, these reports of people told they are NOT in have held true (have turned out to be more accurate indicators of the cutoff). 

So we're seeing, I think, about the same pace of dossiers referred (hey, at least it's holding steady &#38; staying fairly predictable)

On the upside, reports of people told they are not included is one of the last things we hear before referrals arrive -- a sure sign that referrals are about to be done/sent, even if not this week.</description>

		<description>Sorry to be so positive, but I have a strong feeling that December referrals will start very soon. I believe the Spanish rumors...hopeless ( but nervous) optimist I suppose.</description>

		<description>Do you think the CCAA is referring smaller batches each month because there are less children to adopt? Has the Chinese government figured out there is going to be a  shortage of Chinese women in the future and have they laxed the rule of one child per family? Or is this all just some political
bureaucratic game? 
My husband and I are new to this...our paper work arrived in China in Feb. '07 but, we weren't logged in until April 20, "07 so we have a very long way to go. This is all very discouraging seeing all the children around the world needing loving supportive families.

		<description>Hi!
let me put you in a picture, there are this rumor in Spain but there are another one from 3 agencies, not so great, with a cutt off of the 24th. On the other hand your translation is perfect ,this website say that, but is the only one with this information. Who knows, maybe is true or maybe no, nothing sure right now.
Kisses!!!</description>

		<description>The comment above about 350 nsn placements a month  - are they really back to 1999 levels?

I guess we will have to wait untill the number of immigrant visas comes out after Sept to get a real picture of the number of children available.</description>

		<description>In my own predictions I thought the 24th would be the cut off.  I was hoping that I was very wrong and way too pessimistic.  The 27th- 28th would really be a nice moral booster.  It would be very sad to only get through 3 days- even if they are huge.  We just need to get through November.  I really feel for the Dec 05 folks here.  You must be hanging on by a thread.
