I May Be Crazy

Every month or so, we get an update from our agency, FCA, on the Korea program. Its an email sent out to all families in the Korea program, regardless of stage. Most often, its information I already know. But this time, there was a suprising (and depressing) bit of information.
All the families we sent in November have received referrals.  Five packets were sent in December.  We have one family from December that is still awaiting a referral.”
We are that one family. I dont know why, they gave me no explaination when I inquired more. Thats just the way it is. No real reason. Its not like we’re being deliberately shafted or anything. Just the way the chips have fallen, it seems.
Still, its hard not to wallow in the exclusion. I dont understand it.
It seems very likely, at this point, that we will not receive a referral till May or June. I dont know why I even bother keeping track of this stuff, since the timeline keeps moving. *sigh*

well this is my week, so I’m pulling for you.
and don’t think of it as being “left out” - think of it as, your baby’s not ready yet. YOUR particular baby. your child is still waiting for YOU…and that is why you have to wait a little longer than those families. cuz’ those are not your child - your child is still COMING!!!! which is such exciting news, when you think of it. I know it doesn’t seem that way, but - you wouldn’t want just any child, you want the one God has for you. And for that, you may need more time.
