Mexico?

My mother has retired to Mexico- near Lake Chapula. She told me last night on the phone that a group of Irish people came in a restaurant with their newly adopted Mexican babies. She said they were beautiful.

Does anyone know why we don't hear of adopting from Mexico in US? Is is because of the Haugue treaty? I wish I was there to ask a thousand questions.
Looks like I have ANOTHER project to work on.

Anniversary clarification

Sorry to be misleading with the photo. We are into our 11th anniversary. The picture was to show cloud "nine". The ticker shows our LID. We actually starting making calls and signing up in March 2006.
We decided that we will start our renewal process once. We will probably pull out if we have to do a third time. I guess we are looking for an end date- like most of you. I need to plan ahead. I am always a "what-if?" person.

Referrals for July

COngrats to all those people who received referrals with LID Nov 14 - 21st 2005. The children are precious. I love referral time - it shows that matches are being made and I can take my next step in line forward. Happy cloud Nine!

Just a joke...

I have friends that travel to China for work.
They ask me "Do you want something while I am there?"
My response is always "My daughter!"

Do you think she could fit in their suitcase?
Would they notice one less orphaned girl?
Do you think by writing this I will be on the hold list during the review process?

Update: Rumors tend to show only another week of referrals for the month of July. I am praying that the Nov LID group is just enormous (bless you all and the agony of week by week) and that this is NOT the trend. March LID 2006 seems big too. We are Sept 29 LID so I can only IMAGINE the strain of week by week. Let's hope I don't have to experience it. Argh.
