Our Referral Is Here !!!!

Tuesday, June 5th

I was at work today attending an afternoon meeting. When I got back to my desk at 4:20pm there was a message on my voice mail requesting that I call Danielle. My heart skipped a beat as I dialed the phone with anticipation. I was hoping this was the call. Much to my delight it was. Danielle told me we had received a referral for a baby girl born 9/13/06. Her name is Yong Jiang Ru and she is residing in the Jiang Yong orphanage in Hunan, China.

As soon as I got off the phone with Danielle I contacted Michael to share the good news.

Okay so I didn't learn the news in time to tell Mrs. Morgan but I already feel the connection between us.

Thoughts of You

Saturday, June 2nd

I cannot believe that it is almost 19 months from when our dossier arrived in China. Last month referrals went through 11/1/05 with only 6 days of log in dates being processed. All we need is for the next batch to be the same and we will be included.

I have obsessively been looking at the Rumor Queen’s web site in the hopes I will learn when this month's referrals will be sent. For some strange reason I keep having this feeling that Tuesday we will receive the news. I envision telling Mrs. Morgan, my former principal and the one who referred me to Gladney all about our new baby.
