The Waiting is the Hardest Part

Tom Petty really knew what he was talking about when he sang these words-

The waiting is the hardest part
Every day you see one more card
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part


If you scroll dowm to the bottom of the blog, you’ll see that we’ve been waiting seven months for our referral. What exactly does that mean? Simply, a referral is when our agency in Korea matches us with a child. They will send our agency in the U.S. the information and our social worker will call us.

Once we recover from fainting, we will meet with our social worker and she will give us information on the little one. She will show us a few pictures and will give us some medical information and information they have on the baby’s first family.

Once the referral is accepted, we fill out more paperwork and wait again!

My cousin called her adoptions her "paperwork pregnancies." Hard because you don't have a set time table. Hang in there. I am praying for you all!
