Update... but still slow to start.

Within a few days after my last blog, Ryan and I received our first letter from the Department of Children's Services! They sent us a nice little brochure and told us to except someone to get in touch with us within 10 business days about beginning the many, many steps it takes to adopt. Well, let me just say that 10 days have passed, and I've heard nothing yet. So, I can now begin to commiserate with everyone who has ever been through adoption about the waiting game... and I'm only a few weeks in!

So, for now, I've been praying my heart out for God to speed up the process (as if it really matters to God's plan what my timing is like) and I've been trying to keep myself occupied with reading books about adoption. I've been home for a week now out sick from work (my jaw joints have been chattering or locking all together off and on for a month now) and now we're preparing for fixing the problem. I was at the hospital again yesterday with a locked jaw... I just hope my health doesn't interfere at all with the adoption later on down the road.

So, for now, I wait.
