Just a quick adoption update since I have been getting lots
of questions the last couple of weeks. Several
people have wanted to know if we are still adopting, to me this says it feels
like it has taken forever even to people outside our family. We have hit the 10 month mark of waiting on
seeing our girls face. We have no new
news and have just been in the adoption holding pattern for a couple of months
now. I talked to our agency a few weeks
ago to get an update on our wait. They
said there are several families still in front of us in line and to expect
several more month of a wait. But, that
they hope it will be sooner rather than later.
So I am trying to focus on the anticipation of seeing our daughter
for the first time. I mean ½ the excitement
is the anticipation right? Who will she
be? What will she look like? All very exciting things to day dream
about. It is harder to sit back and
enjoy the journey then I would like it to be, we only get to do this once and I
so badly want to enjoy the journey. But, more often than not I find myself
wishing to wait away.
So we continue to wait in the holding pattern trying to learn
to enjoy the process while fielding daily questions from our 3 children asking
about their sister. Our 5 year old is
convinced that we needed to be in China already to pick her up. This makes me a little sad, but I know she will be with us soon.
