I always thought that I was a patient person, but lately I am rethinking that. Why? Because I want that &#*@ phone to ring with our court date! Each day that goes by has been challenging and sort of like riding a roller coaster... spirits are up high each morning with anticipation of getting "the" call, and then they come down fast each night once it's past our agency's office hours. It's like when we were too little to read a calendar but knew that our birthday was coming any day now. Each day you wake up thinking, is today the day? And when it isn't, then disappointment rears its head again.
I saw a terrific shirt on adoptionmama.com that pretty much says it all for PAPs who are waiting for "the" call... "Yes I am still adopting, no I haven't heard yet. But each day brings me closer to my child". This sums it up very succinctly... I love it!
XX Fingers crossed that tomorrow is "the" day!
XOXO to Sasha and Misha
Love, Deb
