...you need a little bit o'Seoul to put you right."
We got an update on where we are on the waiting list. We are approximately #20 on the list for a boy. Our agency has been averaging 3 boy referrals a month. Some months have more, some have less. If that pace continues, we could expect a referral about June 2009. Then we would travel to Korea 3-5mos later to bring him home.
We honestly have no gender preference, but the chances of a boy are about 99%. The most desired child by couples all over the world, for various reasons, is the youngest, healthiest girl...leaving more boys available for adoption. So, our agency and many others do not let first time parents request a gender. That's just fine with us...we will be MORE than THRILLED with a boy!!! We can't wait for the day that our referral comes and we can share him with you.

Little boys are the best:) And you never know what can happen in the next few months. I remember when we were number 20 on the list...about 2 months before we got our referral! You never know...

We are looking at referrals at about the same time!
Your little one will be known to you when the time is right. As the saying goes... the best things come to those who wait... and wait... and wait... and wait... ;)
I know the wait is so hard...especially when its your 1st baby and you just want to be a mom!
I truly believe that the wait made me a better mom b/c I really appreciate each and every day I have w/my son.
