Her adoption took an extra 4 months than the average and let me tell you it was AGONIZING!!!! I knew about her and waited and prayed for her for 13 long months BUT now that she has been home since October, I can look back and see that God's timing was perfect! There are so many things that have worked out for her that wouldn't have been there if she had come home the 4 months earlier and she had an extra 4 months in her birth country and several more visits with her birth mom and an aunt. So please, be encouraged and know that as hard as it is now (and I do know it is hard), God knows the perfect time and the perfect girl for you and your family!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784446856100995224.post-3878880798809445482008-06-08T22:27:00.000-04:002008-06-08T22:27:00.000-04:00You'll be able to miss at least a week of Presiden...You'll be able to miss at least a week of Presidential Campaigning!Emyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17543383232618113272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784446856100995224.post-22378374352628085932008-06-08T18:36:00.000-04:002008-06-08T18:36:00.000-04:00I mean seriously- do you NEED more than #2?

I will be anxious to know the other families we will get to travel with. <BR/><BR/>The only other benefit I could think of (and it actually is a benefit at any time) is that you get to bring your little one home!!! Hang in there. I know the wait is getting tough. Just remember you have a lot of people thinking about you and praying for you.<BR/>RebeccaAdoption Cubedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03277931536371335547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784446856100995224.post-55630875003749491862008-06-07T15:16:00.000-04:002008-06-07T15:16:00.000-04:00Your plane ticket will cost less since it is the o...Your plane ticket will cost less since it is the off season for travel.
