Technically We are Eligible

The new list of children available for adoption in the waiting child program in China, is coming out tonight.  Our paperwork went to China on February 1st.  That is such a huge step and the next step to come after that is LID (means log in date or logged in documents.)  We have not heard from our agency that we have been logged in.  :(  Most people that I have talked to who had their documents sent to China before Chinese New Year, have already received word from their agencies that they have been logged in.  I have been on pins and needles all day, hoping for an email from our agency, saying that we are logged in, so that we would be eligible to be matched from tonight's list.  I did not hear from the agency.  This doesn't mean that we are totally out of it though.  We could still be matched with a child that is starting out as a special focus child.  What this usually means is that the child has either been waiting on the list for more than 2-3 months, or China feels that the child's needs will make them harder to place or match.  Some times, a child will start out with a special focus label, because he is a boy.  To be matched with a special focus child, a family does not need a LID.  So...technically we could be matched tonight.  I am not holding my breath.  I don't think that it is likely to happen, but it could.  I am nervous, and excited.  I am leaving this in God's ball park, and if it is meant to happen tonight, so that we have the child He has chosen for us, it will happen.  If we don't get the call, then I trust God's plan.
