Now That It is Quiet......
It always so quiet after referrals come out. I have gotten a little better; usually I am cranky after referrals. This time I was sad, sad for Colleen and Jim (but they are next:) Sad that so many of us logged in the first couple of months of 2006 seemed to have hit the "peak" wait months. Just sad....we are missing Hannah and Ben's little sister. Everything seems to be waiting on her arrival. I know people say you can't put your life on hold or wish your days away, but it is hard! So we try not to make plans based on when Sophie comes home, and we try really really hard not to wish days away. We are all trying to “hang in there.” Have a good weekend friends. Go enjoy life; we are all blessed in so many ways.

I know, I also have to work hard at not wishing the next several months to fly by, and to remember to enjoy the present as well.
I have a tough time when referrals come out and they are always arriving around our LID anniversary which reminds us just how long we have been waiting!!! You have to put a little bit of your life on hold - saving money for the trip etc but it does feel better to try to enjoy the things we won't be able to once we have our daughter - like staying in bed reading until noon!!!
Referral time seems to always be a nice swift kick in the rear.
Colleen and Jim are next! Which is so exciting.
It's so hard to not wonder and try to arrange our lives around it, I get ya on that one, but we are blessed. Blessed beyond measure.
