Our New Pool
By sandi | May 4, 2008
Since we are approaching the time frame where a referral would be expected we thought it would be fun for everyone to put a guess on the date they think that our referral will come. We will have them listed on the left so that you can see your date and eagerly await with us.
One of the things we plan to do when we are in Ethiopia is stimulate their economy. This is one of the best ways to impact the lives of people, not only are you helping the shop owners by supporting their business but you are also supporting their suppliers. While we are shopping on our trip to pick up our son we will buy something fabulous for the winner of the pool and send it to them when we get home.
My guess is June 3rd. 
It is several days before we will hit the four month mark of waiting. It is also, most likely, on the outside of when you could get a court date before the courts close. Given my luck I would most likely get it at the exact moment that you would be a day late and a dollar short. (Please don’t think me terribly negative because of that statement, it is just the way my life works.) Also, this is an important day in our family history, Kimberly’s adoption was finalized on this date back in 2004. I think it would be neat if it were on the same day, and easy to remember.
Put your guess in the comments section of this post and Bill will get them up in the official list!

Wow, you have tons of guesses up there. How fun!
Since things always take longer than expected, I’m going to go with a July 16th guess. But hopefully it will come sooner for you.
