The Endless Wait...

This is a website telling my thoughts and feelings during the procees of my family's adoption (right now we are still most definetely in the process, and some links or things you were searching for may not be here), and this is where our website story begins... We have recently sent our DTC (dossier-to-China) on October 28, 2005. From then on begins an endless wait... Starting with an LID (log-in-date), then a referral (after the wait of 6-8 months), then finally comes China. A year (technically 6-8 months) usually gos by pretty fast, but not this time. With a bunch of activities in which we are committed to, I really hope that they will make "The Endless Wait" go by a whole lot faster. We know a friend who got their referral today, and it makes me feel like our referral will be here soon also. On DTC day (a few days back) we sort of celebrated by going to Babys-R-Us to buy a cute little gift for our baby (which we hope will be girl between the ages of 0-12mos.), and we have most (if not all) of her nursery ready. We are planning on naming her Kenzie. The two youngest of the family are happy to be getting a new sister, and the youngest (which is a boy) will get to be a big brother. Anyway, we are expecting a referral about July of 2006, and we are expecting a LID(log-in-date) very soon. Our family is Christian, and we have been praying for the baby's safety. We have recently created this website on November 10, 2005, even though we wanted to start it earlier. Our family is very excited, and can't wait to go to China. We are not planning on turning down a referral, (because as most people know that baby/child will get put at the bottom of the stack, and will probably never get adopted); we will be happy to open up our home to any baby. Our family is very excited, and can"t wait to go to China to get our baby!
