We have our LID

I have to commend everyone. Contrary to what we originally thought, we have not been inundated with calls and posts about the status of the adoption. Knowing how people typically behave in cyberspace - where it is very easy to speak ones mind, say something inappropriate, or too convenient not to post a question, we consider this a big deal. So to all of the readers of this site: congratulations!

Now for some news. Today, we received the following e-mail from our agency:

Hi Christopher and Ileana, Congratulations!!

We received your LID of 03/08/07 today. This means that your dossier has begun it's journey through CCAA, heading for your referral. Right now, referrals are running about 16 months from LID; however, this can change with very little notice.

So that's it, another minor hurdle has been cleared. We'll keep you up to date as things progress. In the meantime, keep up the good work by not bothering us too much.
