Wishing Time Away
As a teacher, I naturally do this. How long until.....Christmas vacation....winter break....spring break....summer vacation? Now I am in the world of international adoption and this sickness is rampant. I can't wait to go to bed, wake up and start another day. Maybe today I'll hear something from Ethiopia, any news on the little pea is a gift. Weekends are just 2 long days when I know for a fact that I'll get no new news. I know this is a HORRIBLE thing to do, and I should live each day to the fullest, but crossing another day off the calendar is just the BEST! When we finally do get to travel to Ethiopia and get our little pea, I'll want each day to last forever. You just can't win.

the challenge, i'm sure, is confounded due to the fact that you have no "end date" for when you'll get your pea -- at least not YET. if you were expecting, you'd have a due date -- a tangible end in sight. it's got to be so unnerving to keep crossing off days and not having an official finish line. i'm thinking of you and chris and admire your patience! the reward is on the way!
I must agree with Jill. It is hard enough when you have that due date...not having a date has to make you excruciatingly anxious. It will be well worth the wait and you'll enjoy every minute once he comes home to you. Stay patient and know we're thinking of you!
