Nothing new.....

Nothing is new here... The wait for our child is going to be ....forever. Well at least it feels that way. No one has any real estimates on what's going to happen with the wait time. A couple of years ago it only took 6 months. Now the wait is really backlogged. The people who are getting matched right now logged in early '06.

So it has really slowed down. :(

Some couples here in GA recently did their China trips:

other news on the home front... I got a haircut! Yes I know everyone gets them, but for me it was a big deal as my hair is officialy above the shoulders now! Actually its right to the nape of my neck ( and Scott hates it... he hasn't said so in so many words, but... "why did you cut it so short?" means...) Those who know me know I have had long hair for years and years and just in the last few have been working my way shorter and shorter. Scott loves long hair, but he isn't the one who has to take the time to dry it! When it was down to the middle of my back (brastrap length) it took an hour to get it to dry! I'm now down to 10 minutes!!!!! You never know I may let it grow longer again, but not quite yet! I tend to average a couple months between cuts anyway as the way my stylist has been cutting it grows out well. Only time will tell!

Hi Jenni,

Dad always loved long hair also and I had it long when I was younger, but it sure is easier when it's short! I guess as we grow older, we are just happy to have hair!

Yes, the wait is going to be terribly long. I think it will be even longer than imagined. I just hope I live long enough to see her/them. Since I don't have any grandchildren, I am just living for the day you get your referral.

Maybe you should let your hair grow until you get your referral to see how long it will grow! You may just have to change your name to "Repunzal"! :)

I love you guys and I miss you. Can't wait to see you again.

Love,
Mom

I completely understand the hair vs. time thing. I kept mine short for years because it takes so long to dry...and because I'm too impatient to spend much time styling it.

We need to get together some time. Seems like I haven't seen you in forever!
