So I'm home for lunch - getting supper in the crock pot, checking email, checking blogs...and a gal I know of (don't know her well) just blogged that they have their adopted daughters file in their possesion. They started with the same country we are with in July of last year...and they have HER. Theirs. Just over a year.
and. i'm. frustrated.
I think that me be putting it mildly...because while they are with a different agency than us and everyone sets different peramiters, we are hearing back from others that they have waited OVER 12 MONTHS (really more like 14mos, 16mos etc) for their children.
how is this possible?
How can we all be adopting from the same country and have such DRASTICALLY different wait times.
so i'm frustrated...i'm doubting God's timing and I'm not sharing in the joy of this aqaintaince who has seen her daughter for the first time...and that is not like me...but it doesn't stop the 5 year old in me from thinking "It's my turn!"
Prayers for acceptance and joy and patience...I guess that's all I can ask for....
