We received our monthly update today and our family is currently, officially, #2. However, the family in the #1 position is currently on hold as they have just completed an adoption from the DRC (which sorta kinda makes us #1). They are unable to accept an Ethiopian referral for 6 months. So....unless it takes us 6 more months to get a referral, no one is ahead of us (if it does take 6 months, that family will go back "in front of us" and are waiting to adopt a 0-4 year old girl). At this point, it's more a matter of a child that fits our parameters coming into care in one of our agency's facilities; people past us have been and can continue to get referrals ahead of us because they are waiting for a different age/gender child.
My hope is that this is the last monthly wait-list update that you ever get from me. : )
