So Dan and I are getting a little impatient. It's been a month and a half since the last time we were picked and even though we've only been selected twice, the timeframe between them was about a month. I keep hoping that today is the day we get the call....We're still waiting.....
Well, as I was looking through some other adoption bogs I came across this video. It is so completely moving and oh so TRUE to most of the feelings I have been through or are going through.
**Warning: If you chose to watch this video, please do so with a box of tissues**
Becca, I was sent this video from another blogger and I balled the whole time watching it. I totally know how you feel about the waiting and have been praying that both of our waits will be answered soon with "the call". Keep strong and know there are others out there who are praying for you guys too :) J
(P.S. I sent you a friend request on FB bc there is a GREAT group of adoptive moms and moms to be like us and I thought of you)
