Thanks Beth, I think Christmas would be awesome, but highly unlikely. Montreal is slow.. about 2 1/2 months to schedule an interview after packet 4. As this process has progressed so slowly we have been thinking about waiting until the end of the school year so it is easier on the kids. I might try and take them out of school early to give them an extended summer next year. We will make plans as we get past each step.

I'm just glad to be past this hurdle! :)

I believe I am the last January one on this thread! :thumbs:
