Once again I opened my email and saw that someone was congratulating another family for accepting a referral today. So with excited fingers I typed my way over to to IAN's blog to see the movement on the waiting list, hoping that we had moved in a couple of categories! And as I began to read the update I was completely... let down. Of course this is a selfish reaction and I truly am excited for the family that accepted a referral, but the biggest disappointment was that most of the movement was for below our #'s. Exactly. For instance, we are #9 on Toddler Girl and everyone "Below #9 on Toddler Girl list moves up 1 spot." You probably understand my disappointment. It was the worst to actually see our number listed but not get to move up! Well, I guess this is the down side of being higher up on the list and one the we kind of anticipated. So we will content ourselves to know that in God's timing we will move up and receive our referral and we will take joy in any movement on the list until then! So our current standing is unchanged, here's to next time...
Baby Girl - #41
Baby Boy- #20
Toddler Girl - #9
Sibling Group - #14
