Hola

We are back from 2 weeks of sun, sand and relaxing.

It was great to get away! We needed it!

Coming home was hard only because we are back to the reality of our situation.

It is hard not knowing and the uncertainty of will we have the family we have dreamed of for so long looming over our heads.

It makes my heart hurt!

Always thinking of you guys and glad you had a nice time away. You will just have to make mojitos in the next couple of weeks and pretend you are still gone. :-)

Hoping for a resolution or answers for your family. Always here if you need to vent!

Blessings

I was so hoping that you would come back from vacation and have some good news. Glad to hear you had a good vacation, but sad to hear that you haven't got good news to post. I am sending you guys positive thoughts to get you through this difficult time.

Sending positive thoughts your way ... I was really hoping you'd have gotten some good news while you were away.
Let me know if you ever want to go for a drink in Cowtown :-)

I will be praying some fabulous news comes your way soon, and little Ade will be home in his own bed soon!

Does it make you feel any better how much you were completely and totally missed?? I checked in all the time just waiting for you to be back (and looking forward to some nice, beachy, sun tan photos!) A

PS. So, so sorry that you didn't come home to more progress.

Glad to hear you had a great vacation but am so sorry that you aren't posting some great news about your son. I can't imagine how hard this wait must be. I hope that it's over soon. Take care of yourself,

I hope this is the last vacation you will be able to take without your little man in your arms!

Sharla said...

I too was checking often to see if perhaps you would hear some good news while you were away and I'm so sorry that didn't happen but I am glad that you were able to go somewhere together and try to relax and at the very least, enjoy some sun.

Heidi said...

Oh Rana,

My heart hurts for you. I could just cry... I'm glad you're back, but was so hoping you would come back to some good news. God knows no one deserves it more.

Wishing happiness and progress your way...

Welcome back! Hope you had a good time.
As for not hearing anything adoption wise, all I'll say about that is; that sucks rocks! (Another friend said that to me once about adoption stuff, I couldn't agree with her more!)

Lots of prayers,

Sharla said...

okay so I just tagged you for a blogging game. hope it gives you ten minutes of fun - or even two. go to my blog to find out how to play. it made me laugh when I read my sister-in-law's so I figured we could all use to lighten things up a bit...what the heck?

Never give up... your dream will come true and you will hold your baby Ade in your arms.
