I realize that I have so much to be grateful for, and quite happy about, frankly. We had all but lost Lydi@, and she was given back to us, along with another sweet daughter.
But tonight, I just feel the emptiness of not having them here with us. I miss them and just wish they were both home. We still don't have an update on either of our cases, so we aren't sure how much closer we are to bringing Lydi@ home at this point. We are braced for a long wait for Sofi@, but I'm not sure how I will handle the news if we discover we have to wait much longer for Lydi@.
Waiting is so hard.

A child who becomes your child through adoption completes a family. Just as when you commit to your spouse there are no biological ties, yet a family was formed. This child enters a family in the same way! It is not blood and flesh that form a family, but the heart.” Author unknown
What's with the ampersand?
In case you are wondering, we have replaced the final "a" in Lydi@ and Sofi@ with an ampersand on this blog so that their names cannot be picked up in search engines.

Holli,
I'm sorry to hear that you are having a difficult day. YES, the wait is extremely hard but, just try and remember that each and every day that comes and goes brings you that much closer to your little girls. Praying that GOD wraps his arms around you during your difficult time.
God Bless,
Kelly
CCI
BTW: Your girls are just BEAUTIFUL!
