"How is the adoption going?"

My favorite picture. Patience.
We are waiting. Still waiting. Yes, this is the longest wait for IA with Ch*na. Our paperwork will expire again in May 2009. We will have to decide to continue by refiling the paperwork or pull out. I am desperately hopeful at this point. Why so long? Many reasons- but this is the way it is right now. We have a closet full of clothes, books & toys for "princess." The boys have written stories about having a sister to play with, take care of and spoil.
I was devastated by the news of the Ch*na earthquake, the schools and the people that lost their lives, homes, family. I did get upset though that I counted at least 20 orphanages in the effected region. Why are there that many orphanages when there are so many willing people?
I guess it is a culture that I will have to keep learning about, empathising, and understand.
Thank you for asking.

Every minute will seem worth it when you see her, I just know it.
If you truly want this baby girl, don't give up. I waited 8 years to become a mother, but it finally happened. Keep your candle of faith burning strong.
