I just had to drop you a note of encouragement. When I start to question if it will ever happen, I rely on others to carry the belief for me. You have a community of people, those close to you and other connected by the adoption world, who all strongly believe that the magical referral call will come soon. Hang in there.Tony and Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09688364587932467770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6195170707282917785.post-66039768130712128412009-03-25T12:30:00.000-07:002009-03-25T12:30:00.000-07:00Wow, so it will be soon, soon!

We too are anxious, but numb. I want to shop and set up her room, but why? I know she will come, ONE DAY, but right now it doesn't feel like it, so what's the point of preparing for it, or obsessing over it. Okay, who am I kidding....it is obsessing.

Let me try to make it better for you...<BR/><BR/>The reason why you are having to wait so long is becasue God is picking out a very special child that was meant to be with just you. My husband used to say to me, the pretty ones take longer...I would give him a look and he would say, what, the pretty ones need homes too. I know it sounds wrong but it made me laugh later because she happens to be gorgeous! <BR/><BR/>When we got our referral, our daughter was made available just days before and she is the one we were meant to have. God knows all. <BR/><BR/>You are about to get the BEST refferal and the wait will have been made worth it. <BR/><BR/>Having said that, I would like some of the meds that you are on, I could use some patience! lol<BR/><BR/>AmberAmberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05678154284664112306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6195170707282917785.post-31254546685335637232009-03-24T19:04:00.000-07:002009-03-24T19:04:00.000-07:00I really don't even know what to say about the lis...I really don't even know what to say about the list anymore!!!

The week isn't over yet. I really don't believe that any of us will hit that 10 month mark.
