Why is it that just when you are cruising down the road, quickly and smoothly, you hit a bunch of speed bumps? Okay, okay, logically I know it is to slow you down and make you aware of what's around you. I guess I should actually learn from that little analogy and quit pouting about our current situation.
Up to this point our adoption process has been painless. Every single form, application, procedure, etc. has been quick and easy. I guess I needed a bit of a wake up call, because we have run into some complications with our immigration approval. I'm sure it will all work out fine, but I am so frustrated that something has to go wrong, especially right at the end when I thought I was finished with everything.
I know in the long run I will be thankful for this setback. When I hold our baby in my arms I will be telling myself "If you hadn't hit a snag you would have been finished faster and THIS wouldn't be your baby!" But for now I am feeling a little blue that our wait is going to be even longer.
Okay, enough with my pity party. Gotta dust myself off and work on getting us back on track!
Who ever said adoption was the EASY way to have a baby?

Love your blog. I tried to get that song too for mine but it wouldn't download right. What a great song! Best of luck while you wait. I agree that the unknown part of adopting makes it more difficult in lots of ways than a pregnancy. At least with a pregnancy you know for pretty certain when your baby will arrive!
I love you blog! I need to get started, but I feel like a speed bump. I know things will work out, and you'll have Jasey home before you know it. Good luck and I look forward to following your adventure!
I think the "everything happens for a reason" motto is a great one! and you are right,there is a baby chosen for you that is MEANT for you. This is what I kept telling myself when things were not going as quickly as I wanted ....and you know what??? I truly believe in my heart that Miss P was meant to be with our family, some crazy plan out of our control and now I know why things worked out the way they did!
Best wishes,
Tamara
