We had a long phone call with our agency last night. She confirmed some things we knew and shed some light on some things we didn't. Seems the conflict over there has not caused too much in the way of delays so that is all good. However, she is feeling - because of other cases the SW's have to work on - it may be more like January now until we get that referral. I was very bummed to hear that, and yet at least I know. I would have been sitting around waiting for it all month and disappointed every day it didn't come. So at least we know not to expect it. Going to just busy myself with the holidays and be glad we are in the home stretch. I know I have said this about 100 times now, but here it goes again...
JUST A FEW MORE MONTHS!!!
Now back to the King of Thailand...
Sending out peace and love to the patriarch of our beautiful daughter's country! He hasn't been feeling well lately so we wish him good health, too. I saw a really cute link today that someone posted on the yahoo group. In case some of you haven't seen it, click here. Seems pink is an auspicious (lucky) color for the king to wear right now for his health. He was seen wearing a pink jacket when he was released from the hospital today (above) and it's starting a fashion craze over there with everyone rushing out to get a pink shirt. How cute is that? And hey, who am I to pass on a great fashion trend? Going to march upstairs and don a pink sweater in honor of the king! I am betting they will dress that beautiful daughter of ours in pink, too. How cute she must look!
People in line to buy a pink shirt.
Retailers are ready with pink shirts with Royal Crest on it.
It's nice to see the Thai have peace and something to celebrate today! Think pink people!

I got the email from Andrea last night...maybe your phone called spurred her on to send it. or maybe the email prompted the phone call! Either way, so glad to hear that things aren't getting backed up b/c of all of this! Our TRC board meeting wont happen until January..then who knows how long it will take till the DSDW gives us the go ahead. Some days I'm dying and some I'm just fine, dealing with the wait better. I loved your post today! Go pink!
Have a great weekend!
What a cute post, Jen! All the buzz about pink!
I don't know what to say about your one year anniversary...not exactly a "Congratulations" moment. You are so close! Hang in there! This month will fly by before you know it!
Happy Birthday to the King and Happy First Year of Waiting! It's truly an accomplishment. Here's to dressing your sweet girl in lots of pink in 2009.
It was fun to hear that A's birthday is the same as the Kings. The pink trend is a fun fact too.
Glad you were able to receive some much anticipated answers. Here's praying you receive news soon about your little girl!
Even though it's always hard to hear that we will have to wait a little longer, in a way, December is a good time to hear it because it's an easy time to keep busy. Best Wishes!
