Ugh! The waiting is so hard. I look back now and it was all worth it and I know one day soon you'll be saying the same thing.
I'm sorry that you've heard nothing today....rats....it's so VERY frustrating and I SOOO understand. Hang in there, sweetie!
I know the feeling. :(
I know this time is probably very frusterating. But, God is not done putting all the pieces together yet. When he is, then you will know. We are praying for you guys! Hang in there!
Frustrating...hang in there.
Hang in there! Love the homeschooling updates - sounds very familiar! I thought of taking our blog private early on but changed my mind. It started as just an update for extended family on our adoption, but so many other families contacted us via e-mail with questions regarding the info on the blog, we kept it open. Still praying for y'all -
Still praying, but wanted to let you know that I just tagged you on my blog! Hope you don't mind.
The waiting part is so hard. I hope things come together soon.
