Sometimes things just take a long time

Well we were really hoping to be almost done with this process by now but it was not ment to be.

We are still here and will be for quite some time. Good thing we are getting use out of those really expensive plane tickets.

We asked our translator if for John’s birthday we could visit the boy all day. She laughed and ignored the questions. It was worth a try…

We were promised that all of the paperwork problems would be cleared up by tomorrow, but as all good things with this process we have been told it will not be until Thursday now. Tomorrow is their veterans day so no paperwork will move. Oh well. If I felt that complaining would get me some where I would give it try. Something tells me it would be futile, so we will continue to be patient and wait. When you meet our son you will see why all of this has been worth it. Soon enough he will be officially ours.

Also for all of you who have asked he is now 11 lbs. Yes he is very small, but remeber he was born almost 3 months early and has been living in an institutional setting so he is more like 4 month old, not a 7 month old. Thank you all for your comments.
