I don't have anything witty or profound to say about another month down. I hope I don't have an '11 months of waiting' post in May. But if OUR child isn't ready to be known yet...I can wait longer.
It will come and it will be perfect. There is a little one picked out just for you and only you. During the wait, I kept telling myself that I don't want any baby. I want MY baby. I know none of this really helps during the wait, but you are so close and I am sure it will be very soon.
you are being so patient and that patience will be rewarded. when i think back to when Vietnam closed it's doors just about a year ago, and how devastated we were, i now know that God had already planned Cohen to be our son. i can see that now and am so glad we waited for him :) .
Oh JoJo. Waiting sucks. There is no two ways around it. There are a lot of people out there that are rooting for your family, but I know that sometimes it just stinks to have to wait for something you want and need so badly. Hopefully it will be soon!
it HAS to ring, soon. i want you to know that i think of you, of everyone, that is waiting, every single day. i know how blessed i am, that my wait was brief. i know that YOUR baby is just waiting for the perfect time for your family. it's coming, so soon.
JoJo, Hang in there!! Waiting is so hard.... but you will get that call and picture soon!!!! Then you can celebrate while you wait somemore. But believe me, the wait is worth it, once you see your baby for the first time, touch their little hand and feed them their first bottle.. then the wait will feel worth every second.......then they turn two and you wonder how the time went so quickly........ hugs
You are ALMOST THERE!!! Really. I promise. You are not far now from that amazing and incredible moment when your phone rings and you see that it is the agency and your heart starts to race because maybe this is it. And then your social worker says, "I have a referral for you." And then, really nothing else that ever happened in the previous ten months will ever ever matter to you - ever again. It is coming!!! I know how hard the wait can be around this marker, but IT IS COMING!!!

It's a bitter sweet moment, isn't it! So hard to wait and watch the months go by but knowing each month is closer to your baby!

I am hoping you don't have to post an 11 either, but looking back after we have our babies this will all be a blur and so worth it! Hang in there :)

Praying for you, waiting friend!!!! Our babies will be in our arms soon....at the perfect time! Ring phones ring!!
Hang in there. Your time is coming soon. The minute you see your little one in the royal chair you will be overjoyed. It's so worth the wait.
