And it sucks. But you said it well--it does seem like we're always at the mercy of someone else saying yes or no to our potential for family building. I know you'll get through this and I promise you, you will get to the other side. And we'll all be cheering for you when you do!MyTwoLineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11488860357456329714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8421345763657724791.post-29668425998585229862012-01-25T11:31:00.423-08:002012-01-25T11:31:00.423-08:00Totally relating to the feeling of walking on egg ...Totally relating to the feeling of walking on egg shells until EVERYTHING is final (meaning you are off the plane in the United States with your child). <br /><br />And when that happens - it will be such a huge sigh of relief.Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13321149219471388546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8421345763657724791.post-66799810284340069102012-01-25T10:23:33.802-08:002012-01-25T10:23:33.802-08:00First, boy, that is scary to get a call like that!...First, boy, that is scary to get a call like that! I'm sorry you had to go through that. They should tell you that upfront, at least. Geez.<br /><br />I definitely understand the knee-jerk reaction to anything in life now being "what will this do to our adoption plan?" It seems as if every little thing we do is tied to that, now, in one way or another. And it's exhausting.

I told my husband not to text and drive, which he doesn't do anyway, in case he hurt someone and ruined the adoption. Crazy to be sure. <br />-ShannonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8421345763657724791.post-12697331419133700162012-01-24T20:39:25.864-08:002012-01-24T20:39:25.864-08:00Scary stuff.
