A little update

I don't know if anyone actually follows our blog, but in case you do, I feel I need to update it.  If you noticed my last blog changed,  I thought we were number 14 on the wait list.  When I turned in our dossier I thought we were done.  Nothing else could go wrong.  We had a number!    So our person at Holt said we tentatively, could be 14 on the wait list.    Of course I am ecstatic. I literally wait 2 seconds to tell my family and a few friends.   I even posted it on the group I follow......
Then we get the email our dossier is not accepted.  Our medical report did not specifically state we were free from HIV and TB!           WHAT!

Luckily we just need to add the additional letter.   Thank The Lord we do not have to send our entire dossier back to the Secretary of State and Thai Embassay.
But our luck strikes again. Our dr is out that week so we have to wait until the next week to be tested, with results taking up to 10 days.    So here we are waiting again.

WAITING

I talked to our person at Holt today,  just to give her a heads up of what was going on.  And ya know I had to ask if we were still looking at number 14, and she couldn't give me an answer, just somewhere around there.     My heart is a little heavy today.

I knew our adoption adventure would be full of obstacles and waiting,   I also thought now would be the only time frame we could control.   Boy O Boy was I ever wrong.  God has a plan.  I keep telling myself this.  He is in control, only HIM.   Our child just might not be number14.  Only God knows.
