One of my husbands favorite sayings since we began this process is, “hurry up and wait.”
A lot of the adoption process is about submitting the right forms, doing all of the processes (like the home study), and getting our home ready. Then, it’s just a matter of time until the universe aligns and we are chosen by a birth mother. So, there is born the phrase: “hurry up and wait.”
We’ve gotten a lot of questions from family about timeline. To be honest, we have a timeline, but things could always go quicker or slower. It all just depends. What we do know for certain is that we trust it will all fall into place when it is supposed to.
As always, we remain excited and hopeful. No big updates as of right now – we get our next wait list update on January 1st to see where we are at.
