We are at 8 and a half months waiting for siblings through Imagine and the current wait for sibling referrals there is 12-15+ months. When we started, it was 3-5 months. But it will happen for all of us. Glad to have found your blog.

I can only imagine how difficult it must be. I remember 1978 when Adam's due date was close to my birthday. We were so excited for his arrival. But we had to wait 3 full weeks to meet him. Our 3 week wait felt like an eternity. Ours pales in comparison to your wait. We pray for you, that you and Adam will experience God's amazing grace and sustaining strength during these very long months. <BR/>We love you . . .

Then it was 4 - 6 months until you travel. Well, we are at 4 months, just had our first court date and still don't know if we made it or not.<BR/><BR/>BUT, when you seen your daughter's face for the first time, it is TOTALY worth it. I will keep checking in, and pray for peace for you.<BR/><BR/>p.s. December will be over before you know it, and then it's another month gone....Jodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14990979969549022164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1583726323787008213.post-42341022196729726392008-12-09T14:22:00.000-06:002008-12-09T14:22:00.000-06:00It is very hard when the news that we hear is not ...It is very hard when the news that we hear is not close to what we want. We thought ( at the beginning) that me might even be home by Christmas but now it looks like a few more long months before we will receive our referral. The only thing that we can do is try to stay as positive as possible and support each other when we get the chanceAdamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12783296217063636947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1583726323787008213.post-57388522668973665532008-12-09T13:26:00.000-06:002008-12-09T13:26:00.000-06:00Hmmmm...ya the dreaded call to CAFAC where they te...Hmmmm...ya the dreaded call to CAFAC where they tell you the wait times.<BR/><BR/>Makes you ill doesn't it?
