Waiting

We've pretty much done everything we can do, and now we are in the waiting process. As we understand it, we are first waiting for CIS approval, then we will be fingerprinted, and then we could receive our referral at any point after that. We hired a wonderful lady to help us with our dossier, so it's only taken us a few weeks to complete, thanks to her! After we receive our referral we will have to wait 6 - 12 months to go pick up our baby. I think that will be the hardest part of all of this. I just can't imagine what it's going to be like to know she is ours and then have to let total strangers take care of her. It is really going to test our faith, which I think will be good for us! Thankfully, it is not the people taking care of her we have to trust... it is a Sovereign and loving God.
