Wow! Two referrals today for two families on blogs I follow.
Early in 2009 I discovered blogs. I had seen them before but never really followed them until I found blogs of other families going through an adoption from Nepal. I could relate to the families in these blogs as we were all going through the same things. I didn't feel alone in the journey when someone wrote about their frustrations with the process or how they would think about their future child. And even when the Nepal program closed, I continued to follow these families as they chose different paths after the heartbreak of Nepal. Many of them have had success and it makes me feel so happy that these families have found their child finally. One of the families that received a referral today was so heartbroken after Nepal and then a few weeks ago the news out of their new country Ethiopia was not good. I could really feel her pain through this past year. And now she has the news she has waited for. She will finally be a mother!
I really hope that this good news continues for others still waiting. I have found some new blogs lately of families still hurting from Nepal, still waiting for their child. Lets hope and pray that soon they all recieve the news that the two families got today: Referral.

Thanks! I love to follow others blogs, but it is nice to know others are following mine and thinking of me as well. You are in my prayers also. I look forward to the days that all the Nepal families that I am following will be blog post about life with their child. :)
