Frustrations

So the past month or so, I have been super stressed with school and such that I kind of put working on our adoption papers off a bit. Well school finally ended and Norm and I FINALLY got our "dear birthparent" letter written and sent in to LDS family services. (We're STILL waiting on our background checks to come in!) Lisa, the very nice and patient woman who I talk to ALL the time at LDS family services said they would call as soon as everyone in the office finished reading the letter (the letters are read by all the employees before they are posted). Well its been a week and no call. We still have to schedule our homestudy AND one more set of interviews. So yesterday morning, I woke up feeling very down. I honestly woke up and just started crying thinking how slow this is all going and how much I want a baby of our own. There are days where I just ache to hold my own child. Yesterday was one of those days. However, I came across a blog of an old friend of mine that I'd lost contact with. Apparently she and her husband are trying to have a baby too. They've been trying for two years. I realized that although sometimes when all my friends are having kids and becoming moms, and it seems as though I am soo far behind everyone, I am not alone. I also realized that Heavenly Father never leaves any of His children comfort less and that in His time I will have my precious baby. I just hope it is sooner than later! LOL
