		<description>Uuuggghhh....I&#039;m at the back end of the humongous March 06 line.  12%???  Which was the HUGE month that took 6 months to get through?  November 05?  What % was it of the total at the time?

I keep feeling like we&#039;re soooo close and yet soooo far away...</description>

		<description>I am new to this site and this process and trying to catch up on my knowledge.  When everyone refers to the backlog of dossiers being at 20- 30,000, does that number reflect the number of dossiers at CCAA from just the United States or from the world?
thanks!</description>

		<description>houstonmomof2bios, we are like you and also have children who are always asking when will they get to go to China and get their new sister. I keep telling them that it will come when it does.

Hoping that it will go a little faster after the olpmoics but have my doubts right now.

Email me off line and we can chat as seeing we might travel around the same time.

		<description>FindingHope our lid is 3/28/06, but actually there is a possibility that we were booted back to 4/10/06 as the CCAA couldn&#039;t decide if we were worthy to adopt.  They pulled our file for 5 weeks, so in all likelihood, we&#039;re not even in our group of 3/28.......... I like to fantasize that we were mistakenly placed ahead of our group, hehehe....
Hey, I&#039;m a Pisces, and love to dream.......

Best buy some knee pads for that crawl......... :)

		<description>momtwoboys,
We are LID 12/2007 - very close to yours (although maybe a year apart referral wise, sadly).  I have gotten some peace about all of this, for now, and am not as preoccupied with what will happen as I was.  My daughter, who just turned 8 and is desperate for a little sister, has likewise gotten some peace about it which is good - her crying about it almost nightly was not really helping matters.  What a roller coaster we have gotten on.</description>

		<description>Our daughter is from the Hunan Province.  We have been home since Oct. 2005.  We are waiting for our other daughter.  LID 12/13/06.  We are hopeful the wait will decrease, if it continues to increase, we&#039;ll just hold on to hope and wait until we&#039;re all a &quot;forever family&quot;.  We are close to 50 and feel as young as ever!</description>

		<description>To all those of you that dropped out, my heart goes out to you. Sometimes it is a greater act of love to know your limitations and chose not to parent.</description>

		<description>To Chinababy...I do worry that the China only agencies will go out of business.  I also do not have a great deal of confidence that there will be a siginificant increase in speed/referrals after the Olympics.  It is just a theory, but my husband and I are wondering if this slow down is China&#039;s way to fade out of International Adoptions.  

Our agency continues to solicit business and so they maybe able to stay in business.  It has got to be a strain on their finances considering they were not expecting this kind of a wait.</description>

		<description>My husband and I are logged in as of 3/27/2007. We were told that we would have a 12-15 month wait. What I find frustrating is the lack of honest answers that agencies are willing to give. We will stick with it.  Does anybody worry about China only agencies going out of business?</description>

		<description>GotchaBack-
I love your attitude, commitment and spirit.  You won&#039;t have to crawl from New York to China...I&#039;ll carry you myself!  Of course, I&#039;ll be 90 too so the trip may be long and slow :)
You&#039;ve inspired me.  When is your LID?
LID Feb 07 and just turned 45!</description>
