Our LID


Okay, so none of that went according to plan! It is now February and I am just getting back to this! But, for the record, here's where we are.... Our dossier was completed in October 2009 and sent off to China by our agency. Our official Log-In-Date (LID) is November 24, 2009. It was November 20, 2008 that we went to our first informational meeting on China adoption. I don't know if the year went by fast or slow! But we are now officially waiting. And what a wait it will be! Currently, families in the non-special needs program with China have waited roughly 3 years and 10 months. Well worth it, I'm sure they would all say! In the meantime, my sisters have coerced me into running as part of a relay team in the Mt. Desert Island Marathon in October of this year (the hilliest marathon course in North America, according to Runners World). I don't know whether to laugh or cry! Could someone please tell them I'm not a runner!! At least I will have something to keep me busy and distracted for this first year of "the long wait." Wish me luck! KIKI
