I am so excited that it is Friday. I have the weekend off from work. I don't have any major plans but just looking forward to some down time with the family and the dogs.
Other than a weekend of house cleaning, dog walking, corn eating and shopping we don't have much going on. We are still waiting for news of our referral.
I would like to say the waiting gets easier but it doesn't. We hit 7 months next week. Wow. We still didn't see any referrals this week on the forum so hopefully next week. We did get to see some people get some good news with birth certificates and travel dates so that is great.
We have gotten some updates from recent travelers. It was so nice to see their pictures and to hear the insights. It makes me that much more excited to go there. It is so weird to think that in the next 6-8 weeks I could get a referral. I am still hopeful that we will get our referral before we hit month number 9 of waiting in October. For that to happen we need to start seeing some referrals for all those families who have already hit that 9 month mark. I am really hoping and praying that we start seeing some referral news for these families. I haven't totally lost it yet with all the waiting but I am not sure how sane I would be if we hit 9.5 months or 10. I really hope that doesn't happen. I know that it could but I try not to think too much about it.
Sorry if I am a downer today. I have had a rough week at work with a crazy schedule so I think I have had too much coffee and not enough sleep. I know deep down that no matter how long I wait the right child will join my family when they are ready too. I have faith and I pray God doesn't make me wait too much longer to see the beautiful face of my child but if He does, I know there is a reason and I have to go with it.
