bringing home a child via international adoption! Thanks for participating in our Vietnam adventure.

"LIFE IS NOT MEASURED BY THE NUMBER OF BREATHS YOU TAKE, BUT BY THE MOMENTS THAT TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY"

August 16, 2010

WORRY FREE, CHICKADEE

Deep breathe. Pour a hot cup of tea and sigh. We are ‘paper ready’ and happy to have the ‘normality’ of our life back. No more running around town for signatures, no more people invading I mean, accessing our family, no more mountain tops of paperwork to fill out. It’s all done.

I will admit that I feel bitter-sweet about where we are at in our journey. I am confident in our decision to adopt two dragonflies and overjoyed that we are done the tedious tasks but I am also feeling this next stage is going to be the most difficult. We are now at the point where we can no longer contribute to the ‘moving forward’ aspect and that’s hard to swallow. The ball is no longer in our court. Helpless to our entrusted agency and the birth country of our children-to-be, all we can do is wait.
