Pitty Party..... Party of 1..... I'm here to take my seat at the pity party table! It has been a rough couple of months with not much news.
The only news that we have gotten is basically this: things are changing.... How that will these changes effect us? They don't know..... If we have any questions.... They can TRY to answer them, but they really aren't sure because it's all changing.
This is not a knock on anyone... In fact our agency is amazing. It is just where we are in our process... and it totally stinks. The wait seems unbearable. The time ticks away like molasses... I'm starting to think that people think we are making this whole thing up... we're really just saving all the money they give to us for fundraising and we're going to move to Bermuda instead....
I promise there is a kid waiting for us in Haiti. I'm not sure who it is. I'm not sure if they are a boy or a girl. What I can tell you is that in my pitty parties I long to know who they are, and wish SO badly we could bring them home today.
I know you are praying for us. We have had SOOOO many people supporting us with buying items, praying, asking how things are going, making items for us to sell, donating things to garage sales, and letting us take over our church for an entire Sunday to bring awareness of all those orphans out there for Orphan Sunday. I truly appreciate all of these things. At least through these events it makes the idea of adoption feel real, because if I was just sitting around waiting... and not doing anything... this could all feel very much like a dream.... like a "pie in the sky."
We shall wait on the Lord and know that in this our hearts, minds, and family is being strengthened.
May this find you peace and happiness wherever you are!
