Hurry up and Wait

So, I thought we were finished with all the paperwork and such. I was wrong!!! They did finish our Family Profile and it looks great. I put my whole heart in it and I actually cried while reading it and want to have a baby to allow us to adopt.

Anyway, American Adoptions has been waiting on some paperwork from our Home Study Social Worker and I don't think the communication between the two has been all that stellar. So once again when we thought we were nearing the end and nope its hurry up and wait... UUUUGGGGHHH...

Then to top it off I got my hair colored and it is horrible, seriously, horrible... On a happy note, I remembered I had some brownies and that made me smile...

UGH is right. Eat some brownies for me! The paperwork never seems to end. I hope you get this straightened out soon. :)

Its all hurry up and wait. I think that is what life is about. But definately adoption is all hurry up and wait.

Sorry about the hair. I change my hair color and style monthly. My theory is its just hair and it grows back. Take a lot of vitamins and use a good conditioner, and it will grow faster and become healthy again and recolor!
