Chinese proverb

"An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of time, place or circumstances. The thread may stretch or tangle but will never break."

Any day now...

Today we had a conference call with the program coordinator of our agency to discuss the matching process.  We spoke in detail about the gender, age and medical conditions we are most comfortable with.  She informed us that now that our dossier is registered in China and we are eligible to be matched with a child at any time.  The waiting child list is updated once a month (usually on the 3rd or 4th Monday night of the month) and there is a mad rush of many agencies trying to match families with children at the same time.  BUT...she said sometimes children are added to the list on different days during the month.  So, she checks the list often to see if a new child has been added that could potentially be a good match for any of her waiting families.  Now we are on guard...on standby...anxiously awaiting the phone call or email that she has found a child for us.  And this could happen ANY day now!!  Although, I think we will likely have to wait until the next update of the shared list (probably on October 22nd) to see the sweet face of our child...there is the chance that it could happen ANY day now!  We are ready, we are waiting.
