9 Months today


B is 9 months old today. He was supposed to be home. Way back when I started this process, everything was moving so smoothly. I started in February, got my homestudy done by the middle of April, picked Kyrgyz as my adopted country the beginning of June and got my referal for B the beginning of July. I was really oblivious to the political goings on in the country as I focused on the dossier and getting it completed. Nothing seemed to have stopped last summer, families still went to visit and pick up their children. October finally came and B was 3 months so I could go visit him. And then.... the stall. I was so happy to have the opportunity to visit him in January all the while thinking..'its just a bump in the road' they will start moving again. After my wonderful visit I get home and things were not any better.. and still arent. Its frustrating even more now because Kyrgz is going to have a presidential election in July. Please pray that the babies are home before then. Hugs to all thank you so much for your support.

It's interesting that "the stall" hit different agencies at different times. I went into it July 1 last year... It's been a long wait. Let's hope it's over soon for all of us -- and the kids.

I'm sorry he's not home with you...it sucks when you think it's all going great and maybe has a bump or two--that's expected. This nightmare of wait has not been the typical bump, though...at least I don't think it has...and it sucks.
Hugs for you and baby B!

You and little B. are constantly in my thoughts. I say prayers every day that this situation is resolved and the babies come home with their families. Oh how I wish that I could do something to make this easier for you. Big hugs!

I wish words could make your heartache better, but I know that the only thing to make it better is for B. to come home. I continue to pray for that daily!
