NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS?????

Sorry I have not posted for a while about the adoption. So many of you have asked and I have not gotten back to you...Sorry for that.
I have heard NOTHING on the adoption front. As far as I know we are still #5 on the wait list...and waiting and waiting...No movement for some time now.
I am so torn between my feelings this time around. For the most part I have not been too stressed during the wait...but I have had a few moments lately. Okay, this weekend in particular. As I enjoyed my time with our families, I could not help but wonder about where my other daughter was...what she was doing, who was taking care of her, if she was in an orphanage, if she was being held and loved on....so many thoughts.
On the other hand, I can only imagine how sad it must be to be on the other side of our adoption...The family that will mourn the loss of their baby, no matter the circumstances. It just breaks my heart.
I am praying that God will protect our daughter and her birth family through this crazy process that will bring us together. I know she will have already been through some serious trauma in her little life before she will become a part of our family.
I guess that is why I am so eager to know her. To see the first photo of her little face. The little face I have imagined a thousand times and already love.
I am ready to get a move on, and see this happen.
I am also thinking of Bianca and just taking in our time together.
God has blessed us in such a wild & crazy way. I can only imagine what He has in store for our lives.
If you are a prayer person, please pray for Little Miss Sunshine today. I feel like she could use it.
And I PROMISE....as SOON as I know something I will post all about it!
Thanks for thinking of us!

Hang in there, I too am stressed out trying to figure out WHERE our daughter is.

Keeping my heart open for her to find us, or at least point us in the right direction!

I so hate waiting.

Prayers to you and sunshine!

Praying for you and knowing LMS will arrive in God's perfect timing. Waiting stinks, but friends like me are always here to have lunch to get your mind off things! love.

I never liked waiting....and it is certainly harder now than ever! Hang in there....all this waiting will be so worth it!
