Adoption: LID Day Anniversary
Today is both our wedding anniversary (8 years) and the 1-year anniversary of our LID date. We're celebrating the wedding thing by cleaning house and doing laundry - we're always busy in December, so we celebrate our anniversary in May instead. We started dating on Memorial Day Weekend so that works much better for celebration.
As for the LID date...Our LID is December 11 of 2006. As of this month, CCAA has matched folks through December 14 of *2005.* They've been doing between 6 and 8 calendar days per month. At that rate it will be approximately...[calculates]...one million years before we get a match. So we celebrated by filling out paperwork for our DCFS clearance, and I'm sending it to our SW today. This process will hopefully be a little faster, without interfering with the China process. We shall see.
