Oh well...

Can you guess what we got this week? That's right, no news....sigh. Another adoptive blogger said it perfectly "This adoption is starting to feel like a fantasy again". Here goes my calculating mind again: It's Friday so no news for the weekend. Worse is next week is Tet and nothing will be happening then so obviously we won't hear anything now until the 19th of February. Factor notice to travel and we are likely looking at March...hopefully early March...I guess we didn't need to do the crazy rush to finish the nursery and prepare for travel.

It's so tough because on the one hand you want the little tidbits of hope i.e. our director saying she thinks we might hear something. On the other hand maybe it would have been better not to hope that it would happen this week. Oh the crazy roller coaster that is adoption! We did get 4 new pics of him though, which were amazing. We want him in our arms so badly...I can only stare wistfully at the baby clothes so much...

Oh well...at least it's time for the Olympics, which will be nice and distracting...Go Canada!!

  3. Ugh..... The waiting is so insanele hard. I remember seriously worrying that I would lose my mind. I have heard of woman going for therapy for long after bringing their child home and being diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder relating to the adoption process. Hang in there, anyway you can!!!

    Thank you for offering to take some pictures to the nounous in the orphanage. That would be fantastic. I will get something organized.
    Cheers!
