I thought that related so well to the adoption experience. We know God is in control and we know He has a plan, but the waiting... well, you know. <BR/>I've been thinking of you and praying there is a resolution soon so we can hear good news of a referral.Staciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09371050778429168983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784446856100995224.post-20924622511610919802008-06-19T12:30:00.000-04:002008-06-19T12:30:00.000-04:00You have to have the "Let Go and Let God" approach...You have to have the "Let Go and Let God" approach. It's hard and a constant battle. Just when you think you 'got it', you lose it again. It so helps to realize you have absolutely NO control over anyone else, just yourself. It also helps to know, we're all in the same boat with the same struggles. My emotions waffle from moment to moment. It's part of the 'ride'. Just when you think you have control, you zig when you should have zagged. <BR/><BR/>Fingers crossed that not too much more time goes by before you get your referral. <BR/><BR/>BTW, the emotions are the same whether you're waiting to see your little one for the first time or waiting to hold him/her for the first time. It's stressful to say the least.<BR/><BR/>Soon...<BR/><BR/>JanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
