Moving


SO, to those of you who don't know, we are moving to Jackson, TN...........in 2 weeks!!!! Yikes!! Anyway, we've known for a long time that we would be moving, we just didn't know when. We are very excited, and the Lord has blessed us tremendously with timing, work, selling our house, finding a rental, etc. etc.

I had hoped we would be further along in the adoption process than we are, but I'm sure that's also all part of God's plan and timing :) I spoke with our family coordinator yesterday, and, of course, it all means more paperwork.....and re-doing a lot of paperwork. It won't be difficult, just MORE!

Hopefully, life will be less crazy in a few weeks and we'll be more rested and prepared for when we get "the call."

5 Months and Counting

So, it has been 5 months since we were registered into our region, and we still have not received a referral. The "expected" and anticipated wait was approximately only 2 months. I emailed our family coordinator yesterday. She said that she would let us know as soon as she even had any information on a referral, however, she hadn't heard any news of one yet. She said she knows the wait is "excruciating"........I think that word describes it perfectly. I have to know that (for some reason or reasons) it is best for us in the long run that things are happening as they are.

Hopefully next time any of you check back I'll have good news :)
