Well it's been a long time. I almost forgot I even started a blog. I have decided bloggers must have a ton of free time. Me, not so much!
Here we are in August and no children yet. We have shifted gears a little and moved to adoption from foster care, as the cost to adopt an infant was becoming too large. We had no idea how long this process was going to take. It wasn't until late May/ early June that we were even able to adopt as we were waiting on our Foster Care License. What a frustrating process... hurry up and wait, hurry up and wait! So, now we are legal, YAY!
On July 5th we received a message from our case worker stating that another social worker had seen our profile and wanted to know if we were interested in a brother and sister sibling group. Jeff and I talked and agreed we would be interested in a match meeting.
July 7th...E-mail case worker, yes we are interested.
Nothing...
E-mail case worker, what's going on?
She's trying to get a hold of the other social worker.
Nothing...
Finally, other social worker is contacted with the information that Jeff and I are interested.
Nothing...
E-mail case worker, what's going on?
Waiting to hear back from other social worker.
August 3rd... Nothing...
This is how this whole process has been. At this point we have fallen in love with these two beautiful children and aren't even sure if we will have a match meeting to learn more about them.
God, I know your plan is perfect. Please help me to wait on you and to trust You completely!
Amen!
Hurry up and wait- thats the army slogan! :) I know the feeling.
ReplyDeleteThanks for writing Steph. Bloggers don't have a ton of time, at least in my case I usually write when I need an outlet and don't want to say things I regret so I write them down instead. :P
