Just got a call from our International Adoption Specialist... with quite a bit of specific news. She let us know that we have moved "a lot" further up the list since we spoke last. I have never heard the terms "movement" and "a lot" together in a statement from CHSFS before. So that was pretty uplifting on its own.
Then she wanted to give me a visual of how close we were getting. According to her, the true/real/all families included list is 6 pages long. She let me know that we are on the first page... "above the fold". Now I am just curious how they fold papers in Minnesota? Hmmm.
Furthermore, she added that it seemed we would get a referral in about 2 months. But felt that it really could be sooner.
While all this is up for change and re-caluculation... it is fun to think about. And so nice to finally have some specifics to share when I am next asked, "Where are you in the wait?" Now I could even pair it with a bit of origami for a multi-modality explanation!
