Hi everyone ... I think this is going to be a fairly quiet couple of months on the adoption front. I basically have only waiting to do. I am currently waiting for my US-CIS approval letter to arrive, but it probably won't come until September. After that I will be waiting for an Ethiopian court date (not likely until October) ... and then will wait to travel (not likely until November). Just a whole lot of waiting. Meanwhile, I have been making a scrapbook for Lucy. I am writing fairly short notes about the process of adopting her ... it's been a lot of fun, but that book is also almost up to date. I am also knitting a blanket for her, I think that will take until the time I leave which is a good thing. Each weekend I am trying to do one house project in preparation ... and by the end of this coming weekend July will be over. Waiting is hard!
About Me
- Stacy
- I adopted my daughter Lucy from Ethiopia in 2005. I am a single mom. I am also a social worker and a human being. Most days it goes in that order; mom, social worker, human being. Wouldn't want to change the mom thing for the whole world. Please click to link to my old blog for a tour of the Ethiopian adoption process, and the first year or so of Raising Lucy

Oh, Stacy, the waiting part will be tough. I am so excited for you though. Just think in November, Lucy will have a mother and many aunts and uncles!!! I can't wait to see you and Lucy walk through the gates at the airport. Time will go quickly. I hope you do get updated pictures of her. That will help.
Hang in there! Your heart is so big!
