Yes, another month has come and gone. Our dossier has been in Vietnam now for 16 months. Wow. Not sure what else to say.
I continue to hope we hear soon. I have good days and I admit I have some not so great days too. The never ending wait is hard but it has not affected my desire and my clarity. I have discovered over the course of these many months that adoption is truly not for the faint of heart - it is a leap of faith and a course of love that leads us to add to our family through adoption. I don't second guess our decision one moment. I rarely have such clarity and peace in the decisions we make as a family - but I do know without a shadow of a doubt that adoption and this child that for now lives in my hopes, was put in our hearts for a reason
...and I will endure however long this takes, because I know it is the right thing for our family. We all are so ready to love this child. All these months have lead us to such love and anticipation. I won't say I've enjoyed this wait and all it's ups and downs but I will say if this road leads to her - it was a road very worth taking.
So, we are celebrating 16 months closer to her. We are close I hope. Please cross your fingers that everything will fall into place soon.
