Based on the previous arrival times of referrals, the Rumor Queen projects the following:
The soonest I’d expect to see them this month is Tuesday, November 27 the latest is Friday, December 7. The most likely arrival would be Friday, November 30 or Monday, December 3.
I can't wait to see our daughter's face in our referral next month! Oh, and by the way, did I mention..."We're NEXT!"

Latest Update: The Final Countdown Begins
It looks like the cut off is 12.8.05 for this month's batch of referrals. Despite the fact that 12.12 wasn't included this time, Y'all, I'm so excited because I know that WE ARE FINALLY NEXT! The countdown begins! In one month (that's only 30 days!), we too will be receiving our referral!!! Thanksgiving will be a very special holiday for us this year, as my husband and I will be giving much thanks for the child with whom we will soon be matched!
Some of you may be asking...Okay, how do you know for sure this time? Well, this is how I know. Referrals come in at the first of every month. Referral cut off for this month is 12.8.05. That means that the CCAA only has to match 12.9.05 applicants before they match our LID of 12.12.05!! You see, 12.10.05 and 12.11.05 were a Saturday and Sunday so there were no LIDs for those two days. That means that the CCAA only has to match 1 day of referrals before matching our date!
I can't believe that I can finally say with confidence, "we're next"!!
So, over the next month, will you please pray with us?
* Pray for the health and safety of our little one as she waits.
*Pray for the foster mom and/or the orphanage nanny that will be looking after her.
*Pray for our daughter's birthmother and birthfather, as they will always be important people to us and to our child.
*Pray for all the mamas and papas-to-be and our children that are waiting to be united.
Congratulations to all of the families that will be receiving their referrals this month! How amazing it must be to know that you will have your daughter by the end of the year.

Latest Update
As of tonight, the rumors are that the cut off might likely be 12.08.05 and not 12.12.05 (that's us). Nothing is confirmed at this point. Stay tuned for more adoption drama.

The Latest News
The Spanish Rumor Queen has upgraded the rumor that 12.12.05 (that's us) IS in fact the cutoff for this next batch (meaning this week's batch). She gives it a 10 rating! (news as of today)
The U.S. Rumor Queen is saying to not bank on this as there's not enough information to confirm that this is fact (news as of today).
My agency is saying that the 12th is a longshot and that they expect the CCAA to get to the 9th for the cutoff (news as of last week).
So what's a girl like me to do? Now do you see what I go through each month? Oh...my daily ritual of the constant guessing, hoping, and praying. I want so desperately to believe the rumor that we are included and will be seeing our baby for the first time within a week! I want to throw "cautious optimism" to the wind and jump over the moon with joy. But instead, I find myself tempering my excitement until the referrals are mailed out this week and a cutoff is confirmed.
How am I going to get anything done this week, with the constant heart palpitations and these hopeful rumors floating around out there? I can assure you that my bum will be glued to the computer chair for most of the week. Anything I hear will be posted on this blog. Please keep praying for a Christmas miracle!

Latest News
I just spoke with my agency, and they think that a cut-off of 12.12.05 is a longshot. They think that it will more likely be around 12.9.05. I'm beginning to think this is the case because we have seen rumors in the past that project a few days further than what actually ends up being the cut-off. My agency thinks with a 12.12.05 LID we are more likely to see our referral in December than in November. That's not to say I wouldn't welcome an enormous surprise this month, but I'm not going to bank on it. I trust my agency more than I trust the rumor mill. I wouldn't mind if my agency's predictions were proved wrong though.

Latest Update...First Rumor
I'm flipping out...the Rumor Queen says that a European site, the Spanish Rumor site, says the cut off will be the 12th (that's us!), possibly the 13th. They say they are "confirming this", they aren't treating it as a rumor but as fact. Rumor Queen warns not to take it to the bank just yet.
So what would this mean? 1). We'd have a referral in the next week and finally know our daughter 2). The waiting game would come to an end. 3). We'd officially be parents! 4). I'll most definitely be over the moon.
It is so difficult not to get our hopes up too high with this news. We've seen rumors like this many times in the past that proclaim to get further along than actually do. However, for one brief moment, it's exciting to think that our referral is in the next batch perhaps. Friends, pray that we'll get our Christmas miracle afterall! All things are possible at this point now that November 2005 LID's are out of the way. Time will tell.
