Screeching halt.

We still have no news to report on the adoption process and I have to say that the wait for our homestudy approval letter is beginning to take its toll. Overall, the process for baby number 2 has been much more gentle on our emotions because we have our Sophie to keep us occupied (and boy, she DOES keep us busy!) and the timeline has been looking very encouraging for a quick process.

That still doesn't mean that we are void of any anxiety around this adoption! I finally had to break this morning and call our agency just to make sure we hadn't missed anything and they assured me that due to an onslaught of applications, our approval is taking a bit longer. No worries...we just have to exercise more patience. After talking with our case manager, I feel a sense of relief. I'm also a bit embarrassed that I let myself get so emotional. I guess those "pregnancy" hormones are back in force!

Please pray that our homestudy approval happens within the next couple of weeks so that we can officially state that we're expecting and pray for peace as we prepare to enter into the "real" waiting period. Sigh.
