March Update

Each month, as you know, we receive an update from our agency that tells us where we are on our agency's wait list.  Last month, we were number 27.  Our agency is on the ball this month with updates being emailed today....March 1st.  We have moved to number.......

Moving two spots per month seems like a snail's pace in some ways but our email today reminded us that GREAT things are happening over at Lifeline.  Actually, since the last update, there have been SIX children matched with their forever families (a combination of healthy children, older children and special needs children) and that, my friends, is some good news.

An update to this update.....due to some conversations that took place with our agency a couple of weeks ago (because of something that came up), we were also able to get an update/number that is more specific to our age/gender parameters.  THIS particular update SEEMS very exciting (we're number FIVE for a 3-5 year old girl) and it is....but the truth remains that it could still be months before we receive a referral.  OR....it could be days.  Oh, the unknown.  We will likely never know, until we get a referral call, if/when we move up on this particular list as it is too tedious for our agency to be able to update each family in this way.  

Again, we are EXACTLY where God has us and there's no better place to be.
