Sianna,

It is 10:30 A.M. on Sunday. I woke up this morning and checked my emails and also my China Angels Board…only to receive frustrating news on the progress of adoptions….or lack of I should say. Granted, these are “rumors” but nonetheless, very frustrating. According to this information we are not looking to receive a referral for you until June of 2008!!! That means another year and several months. I am pretty much numb at this point. If that were the case that would mean 3 years and 3 months we will have waiting for you….39 months. When we began this process we were looking at 12 months total from beginning to end. <sigh> I will get through this…just not sure how.

I just want you to know that the only negative aspect about this process is the wait. All else we have and are enjoying…the anticipation of bringing you home and having your apart of our lives. I can not explain what the “waiting” is doing…I have never experienced anything like this before. Maybe it is a huge lesson for us to learn, well, consider it learned!

IF, we do have this long wait still ahead…I have got to come up with something to help me get through this. I am not sure what that is…but I need to be invloved in something that will help me pass the time. Work and everyday normal life is not cutting it. I will think on that one….

I could work on your room, but I don’t want to finish it too soon. I would rather have it completed right before your arrival. I could learn Chinese…but I can hardly do English well <grin> But that might be something I could do. I know if I spoke to you in Chinese when we met…it might make things easier for you. I will look into that.

I just can’t imagine what it is going to feel like when I am waiting in the room right before they hand you to me. I just can’t even process that… I really hope that one day you will know how much your daddy and I loved you before we even met you. I believe that you were born in my heart…back in March of 2005 and that you were always meant to be with us….and us with you.

Love you, Love you, Love you!!!!! Always!

~Mommy
