CCAA Update 1-2008

The CCAA (China Center of Adoption Affairs) has updated their website with referrals through December 19, 2005. As you can see, that means only 5 days were referred for this month. I could go on and on about this for days, but what's the point. I cannot lie - at times, it would seem easier to admit defeat and withdraw from the program. This week, we will be meeting with our social worker to discuss our case. We'll see what comes of it, although to say that we have high expectations would be a slight untruth. We do not have any concrete plans to make any drastic changes but in the very near future we will be exploring any and all options we may have within the China program. I will try to keep you updated with what takes place, but please know, that sometimes just typing out these words gets more and more difficult to do. We have become all too familiar with what can only be described as "referral-time blues". It's kinda funny - you really wouldn't want to be inside our household during the first week of the month...
