Well, I started this blog back in November of 2005. I haven't posted anything since or even visited the site since then. That doesn't mean that I haven't had anything going on in my life. For one my mother died on December 8, 2005. She had been very ill from cancer, so it was a blessing that God finally took her. However, it's still been hard and on. I miss her terribly. It's also hard to see my father struggle with figuring out what his life is now without my mother. They were married for 56 years! It's something he has to go through, but it's hard to not be able to "fix" it.
We are still waiting for our referral from China. There are lots of rumors about referral wait times. Our agency is saying 8 months (we were originally told 5-6 months), meaning it will take about 8 months from LID to referral. At referral we'll find out who our precious daughter is! Our daughters will travel with us, and my father too has decided to travel to China with us. That will be fun! So now we wait.....
