I felt like our life was on pause while we were in the middle of all of it. I can't imagine what it must be like to be in your position but I'm sending you good wishes and happy thoughts. May your wait be short and soon all the torture of waiting wiped away by a little one. Good luck!Ordinary Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04097349591385452530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3231338836354120558.post-89211211383304668292011-03-23T07:51:36.748-05:002011-03-23T07:51:36.748-05:00Hi there!

It is, simply, impossible to plan beyond the basics (and given that I have a friend who was only considering domestic newborn adoption but has been offered a situation with an 8 month old, even the basics are questionable). <br /><br />We are in the same place. Our home study paperwork has been approved, we've had our interviews with the home study social worker, and our home inspection is this weekend. She said she'd begin working on our report so that it would be ready to go post home inspection. <br /><br />The waiting...oh the waiting...<br /><br />Is there a reason that you don't allow comments via Name/URL?Victoriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07115698808877432352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3231338836354120558.post-81849012898013254552011-03-22T06:00:20.291-05:002011-03-22T06:00:20.291-05:00Here from ICLW!

We went from screening to taking our daughter home in less than 3 weeks, there was no time for registries or planning & it was wonderfully manic!
