Its looking like we won't be pleasantly surprised

Our agency seems confident that all the necessary documents won't be ready to submit to the courts until the END of November. I don't think we'll have our little angel home for Christmas. I understand that everything needs to be in order for the adoption to go thru, and this hold up is no ones fault....I'm just sad about it, sad for us, sad for our little girl.

Oh joy, I just can't wait to find out what other paperwork we'll need to update due to this delay. We have doctor's appt next week to update the I600a for the US side, we had doctors appt in August for the dossier #2 for Russia, now I'm sure we'll need to go back in 2 more months for more medicals. Will the fun never end?

We are celebrating Madison's 13th birthday tonight with a Murder/Mystery dinner with a few of her friends, while Dylan goes off to spend the night with Gramma. I will go and enjoy myself and hope that somehow a special little girl across the ocean knows there is a mommy & daddy out there missing her, just waiting to give her all the love she deserves.

I feel so sad for you and your little girl. As painful as it is for you to not be with her and think about her all the time, she is so young that her life is "business as usual". She has no idea yet what a wonderful life lies ahead for her. She WILL get home to you. Hang in there.

I know the paperwork is so tedious and frustrating...but she is so close to being home! I don't know how you are surviving the wait but she will be worth it :) I hope time flies and you are in Russia soon!
