I remember when I got Opal's referral and emailed you that night to tell you. I was sure that we would be celebrating Sadie within a few months. <br /><br />You have had incredible patience and strength through this wait. You have been so supportive of everyone. You are now #2 on "the list" and your phone just HAS to ring SOON!!! <br /><br />I can't wait to celebrate with you when you get Sadie's picture and see what your baby girl looks like!Katie W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06264227293114728405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7778672899632226984.post-47790997107684426742010-01-30T08:15:16.241-06:002010-01-30T08:15:16.241-06:00When we were waiting I remember that we got the ca...When we were waiting I remember that we got the call just when I thought I absolutely couldn't take the wait any longer - like it was physically painful. I remember that most of the referrals at that time happened on Thursday and so I lived for Thursday and then went into a mild depression every Thursday night. Now, a little over one year since our referral it feels like the time flew. If someone would have told me that two years ago I would have thought they were crazy. :)Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00716484576935337056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7778672899632226984.post-71629016213897077712010-01-29T14:44:29.974-06:002010-01-29T14:44:29.974-06:00Waiting is so hard because like you said, we have ...Waiting is so hard because like you said, we have no control over it. At least you are able to use this time to prepare your boys and meet more people who have been touched by adoption. Sadie will come at the right time!

We actually were initially planning to adopt from China and were waiting and waiting for about 5 years until I turned 30 (b/c both parents have to be 30 to start the process) and when we finally hit that time, China's wait became excruciatingly long...which is why we switched over...and of course now, we are stuck in the EP waiting. Hang in there...I know a girl referral is coming up soon!IP Journeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10616777322569203743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7778672899632226984.post-79812623204947051742010-01-29T06:38:47.446-06:002010-01-29T06:38:47.446-06:00Aw, Megan.

I'm so sorry you've been waiting so long. <br /><br />Your boys are so sweet!! My 3 1/2 year old asks about her baby brother all of the time - then I realize how much our 'baby' has grown during this wait and that she is really ready to become a big sister.<br /><br />I also totally get the men vs. women comment. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7778672899632226984.post-92193528337672547522010-01-29T00:05:11.940-06:002010-01-29T00:05:11.940-06:00my favorite is looking forward to mondays and drea...my favorite is looking forward to mondays and dreading fridays! so true!<br /><br />i also found myself rummaging through the mail ignoring personal card type envelopes and searching for legal type government issued envelopes!suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14165894194676453602noreply@blogger.com
