Hold the baby gifts! It's official! We might not get a referral for a baby from China!
When we started this adoption journey, way back in January 2005 before choosing a country from which to adopt, we talked about wanting an older sibling group of 2. After deciding on China's non-special needs program, which does not have older sibling groups available for international adoption, we opted to request a match with a baby, either gender.
Recently we've been revisiting our desire to adopt an older child and why we migrated away from that. We talked with our agency and social worker about it and they were supportive. As a result of our discussions, we have sent an addendum to our adoption petition asking that we be matched with a child up to 7 years of age. Our agency sent it to CCAA on March 13th.
We're very happy with this change and look forward to the day we are finally matched with our child.
