Frustration levels are high.  Promises every week that the powers that be will sign off on our files. Then they're out of country, then there's a holiday, then they're busy with other planning.  But it WILL happen soon.  Just a little more patience. I'm glad I have a very supportive husband who knows that the bonding right now is too important to come home for a week or two and then head back here again.  And we're also very thankful for supportive parents who bend over backwards to love our kids when we're not there. We all know this is very temporary.  We all fight for what we value.
Financially this adoption has stretched us in ways we never thought possible. We all spend (and (borrow)  money on what's important.. But we have no regrets. 

Can't wait till you meet our new bundles of joy. They will add even more fun and joy to our home!
