I confess:
*as I wrote that last post, I was very excited about where we are and how close we are to a referral
*after I read the last post, I got depressed at how long we still have before we have our child home
*it’s been a tough week. Since the bankruptcy happened I have tried very hard not to get caught up emotionally in what is going on the boards and the latest drama. There is always ‘something’ and to save my sanity I usually take it all with a grain of salt until I see some concrete proof that it might be true. I was avoiding the latest news in hopes that it was just another rumour. For those not in the adoption world, we are going to be faced with much longer wait times… That’s all I am going to say about it. It adds more time to our time line and causes children to have longer time in institutional care. It’s sad and hopefully things can be turned around.
*that after the latest news that wait times are only going to increase I really wondered if we should continue with this adoption. If we weren’t so ‘close’ to a referral, I think we would be seriously considering our options
*that our child is worth waiting for and some day we will look back at this time and be grateful for the path that lead us to our child.

Brenda, I have been thinking of you this past week. I hope & pray everything works out quicker then we think. You will be a mom one day. Your child is worth it. I know sometimes you just don't feel like fighting anymore but if you get tired, let me know and I'll pick up the sword for you for a while. Hugs
