Natalie Comes Home!

Our journey to adopting our daughter from China. A hundred years from now it will not matter what size my bank account was or the kind of car I drove...but the world may be different, because I was important in the life of a child.

At A Snail's Pace

Yes, we are still waiting! Oy! Yup, there has been another delay. We are now setting our sights to the first week in November. I'm disappointed, DH is saying 'Oh well, only 3 more weeks'.

I think, because we are paying for services, so many of us think the adoption process is a business, but it can't be a business when we are dealing with children. Because human lives are involved, we cannot just expect things to happen on an explicit time schedule. That was my mistake. I attached myself to a timeline. It is just not realistic. I guess I will work in the garden and burn off some of my anxiousness.
