Courts are closed for the rest of August and September for holiday. No progress for families waiting for court and travel dates.
The good news for me -- because I'm always trying to look at the positive, right -- is that most likely, my referral and travel and court dates will all be after the holiday season, so I shouldn't be effected by them. And if I am, it's a good thing, because then it means things happened sooner than I was expecting.
The weekly update is still saying 18-19 months for referrals for my age ranges. Still putting me at November 2011 -- 11/11 has a nice sound to it, no?
Most families waiting for a court date are waiting between 1 and 3 months after they have accepted their referral. And the estimated time between the two trips is 3-7 weeks.
So by my 42nd birthday we'll all be home? It's a nice thought.
Another positive is you will be younger than I am when you start motherhood.
