We are now #15 on the waiting list! We expect a referral sometime this fall if the times stay the same. These are some quotes from a booklet I am reading on waiting:

"Waiting can make our hearts bigger so that we can love deeper. Waiting can give us time to pray for our sweet children who are on the way. God can use the waiting time to mold us into the parents He needs us to be for the children He is sending our way."

"Before anything else recognize that your wait is for a purpose. What purpose? Only God knows, and He will reveal His purposes right on time. God doesn't create anything without the most careful design, especially, I believe, when He creates a family. Listen, watch and embrace your sacred wait."
