#3 on the Girl list and #3 on the Boy list...

From the very beginning of this process we've been expecting to receive a referral for a little boy. Suddenly, we find ourselves in exactly the same position on both the boy and girl list. We really have no idea what we're going to be getting and the adoption agency can't speculate at this point either. What a wodnerful surprise it will be for us!

We've been waiting to hear something about our baby for four months (120 days....but who's counting) now. The passing of time usually helps create a feeling of peace during stressful situations.....adoption is NOT one of those situations. As time passes, our baby gets older and we're not there to witness it. Somewhere in Korea, our child is being loved by a family and growing stronger as a result of the nurturing the foster care system in Korea offers. Thankfully, the foster care system is MUCH better than what we're used to here in the United States. We could actually learn a lot from Korea in this regard.
