Crummy Forecast Ahead

Sooo... is it possible that we will be waiting for Lucy for 3 more years? Is that crazy or what?

I really missed her today. I have so many thoughts about gotcha day and bringing her home and her falling in love with her new family. I know that I need to stop but... I am her mom already in my heart and it is really hard. (not to be sappy here but sad times call for it)

Imagine being 9 months pregnant and the doctor tells you that your baby will not come for 2 or 3 more years!!! Are you kidding me? You would go crazy. Yaa, those are my shoes. I do not see how it will be any faster. Simple math.

I had remained very optimistic, it is getting really hard to continue that. Certain goals we had are needing to be rearranged. Looks like I could be 37 yrs old before we get her. I am not happy about that at all.

Any ways I needed to vent a little bit. Go ahead and throw that party for us. Pity Party. boo.

Thanks for sympathizing Penelope!

Mirna & Schmirna

ok, if you are not watching the amazing race, two things:
a. what the??? that show is great
2. there is a team on there now that is absolutely ridiculous.

mirna and schmirna are cousins or something. they are so incredibly annoying. why they choose to speak spanglish to everyone, no matter what country they are in, is beyond me. i cannot stand them. so, last week when this midevil challenge came up... well, you'll see. i have been laughing ever since.

p.s. the best two second clip IN THE WORLD is to the left as well. for a quick laugh.

Enjoy.

April 1st

Wow!

One year ago today we received a call from our Agency, congratulating us on being approved to work with them and begin taking the many steps to go get our daughter.

It was a Saturday, April 1st and they left us a voicemail. I remember we jumped up and down and hugged a lot on that day. We were so excited. Of course, we still are. The mood is a little bit more sedated and the speed of the journey has slowed down so much. It will be amazing to see another year pass, knowing that we will be ever so close to holding her, kissing her and introducing her to her new family.

I am so glad we went to that information meeting and really jumped right in. Now I just wish I would have done it sooner. But I cannot change that now. And we are officially approaching 8 months since our LID.

So congratulations to us and all the other waiting families out there. Everyday that passes is a day closer to seeing our little one's beautiful face.
