Waiting

I have to say waiting is one of the hardest things!  This post is just to vent a little bit.  We have been "paper pregnant" for two months now.  Meaning we have been approved for our adoption.  I keep finding all of these stories of families that post their info on an adoption site and two weeks later they are picked.  I would love that!  I keep hoping and praying that it won't be too much longer.  I am not the most patient person and I feel like I am being pushed to my limits here but our family is learning some amazing things and my relationship with my Heavenly Father has gotten stronger.  We will keep waiting and trying to be patient. We would like to ask all of you to keep us and our birth mother in your prayers!

...waiting can be so hard sometimes! I've been there before and know exactly how you feel. Hang in there!

I've slogged through the waiting game too...I'm sorry it's hard. You and Kendall are amazing parents. I have complete faith that things will work out for you, and even though it hurts right now, Heavenly Father's plan always turns out better than anything we can come up with on our own. ((hugs))

It will happen when it is meant to be :) Landon's brother and his wife waited about a year after their papers were turned in before they received their little girl. They had been married about 9 years when they adopted their first one. Now they have two girls that they have adopted. She had their first one (a boy) this last March and every doctor told her it was impossible to get pregnant. Be patient...your time wil come:)

I hate being "paper pregnant" too. It sucks because you have no idea how long you'll be waiting! I guess we just have to remember it will all be worth it in the end (easier said then done of coarse).

I have a few friends who are also "paper pregnant" and it is such an emotional time for them. The waiting game is never fun. It's so important that you keep in mind that it is all in Heavenly Father's plan. You will definately be in our prayers.

I'm so sorry you're stuck waiting because waiting really can stink. I am thinking of you and praying that it all works out!
