Update-ish

Unfortunately, there isn't much to report as of late.  We haven't yet heard anything from our agency about our adoption.  Our situation is very different than many other countries.  For example, we do not receive a number and stand in line.  The partners in country and our agency here match families with children.  Essentially, we won't know ANYTHING until we know EVERYTHING!   We have, however, continued to connect with many other families!  In fact, one family is leaving TODAY to meet their little girl!  :)  Our prayers and thoughts are with them during their stay.  We pray for a safe & healthy trip and a speedy process to bring her home soon!



Adorable pic of the day...our puppy Sam has been found lying in the baby room in front of the crib.  This is most unusual as she normally is never even in that room!  She must be waiting for her bestie!

Making Connections

Over the past week we have had the amazing pleasure of connecting with other families!  Facebook is an amazing tool!  I immediately felt a sense of relief that I finally have people to really talk to about our situation.  We have been blessed to have amazing support from family and friends but as anyone in a unique situation can understand, you find an additional sense of peace when talking with others who have gone through what you have.

Collectively, we are working on packing lists, notes on travel/hotels, etc...  Awesome!
