Still Nothing

we are just days away from may and we still haven't received our I-600 approval. i NEVER thought it would have taken us this long to get mia.

we've been at the far end of every single timeframe that the adoption agency gave us. they said it takes families 12-16 months to get a referral of a child - it took us 16. they tell families that it takes 4-7 months to receive your child after the referral and it has taken us 7 SO FAR. i know this is not the case for most of the families that have gone through the process. i've heard their stories and seen them receive their children is shorter amounts of time than it will take us.

i'm just having a hard time understanding why we seem to be the exception. i know there is a reason for everything - i know that. when we first heard that our paperwork was going to be delayed, i had a huge sense that there was a good reason. i just lose grasp of that at times - times like now.

God is still good - even though we don't know why we have to go through the things we go through.
