Referral Update

Last week the CCAA referred children for those with log in dates of February 18th through February 23th. That's 6 more days closer to Marissa Renee's (MR) referral. I've changed the counter on the right to reflect that their are now 27 LID's left till we see our daughter's face.
We are under 30 days!! There are now less than a months worth of LID's before us. I can't believe it. According to China Adoption Forecast.com if China continues at the pace they have been, we should receive MR's referral in May. That's 5 months from now. That's finally under 6 months!!!!!!! March 06 is a large month of referrals, but after waiting 32+ months I've got to hang on the thought that we are so close!!
Someone asked me recently how John and I can handle such as long wait. Our faith is what has gotten us this far, and is what will see us through. I totally trust in our Lords perfect timing.
What also came to mind was a scene from one of my most favorite movies, The Princess Bride, when Miracle Max is asked to hurry up is miracle. His reply was that you can't hurry a miracle, cause if you do you get a "rotten miracle" :-). Well, we are not rushing our miracle, and we believe she will be perfect!!
