Yes, we are still waiting!

I have not been as good about this journal as I should. I am also keeping a written journal with my more private thoughts, not doing so well with that one either. We are approaching 9 months of waiting. If we had chosen the more traditional method of adding to our family we would be expecting our child any day. I read the other day that an elephant has the gestation period of 22 months, I think we will be able to relate to that in this process. We are nearly 14 months from our date of application and approval. Time really has gone fast, we are so blessed to have our girls and enjoy them so much.

M seems to be having the most difficutly with the wait. She has been very patient, but at 4 1/2 it is diffucult to understand why she isn't here. She prayes each night at dinner that we will get on the plane to get her baby from China tonight!!

We are estimating that we are about 1/2 way through the wait. If so there is a good chance our daughter is born or is about to be born. Time will tell.
Blessings,
