I read a lot of blogs! Teaching blogs, adoption blogs, organizing blogs, you name it I will probably read it. I have read some awesome blogs on adoption, depicting the whole story...the highs, the lows, the joys, and the tears. I have been amazed at the strength of these individuals. Well yesterday and today I experienced a high and a low, and to be honest...I don't quite think I have been very strong.
Yesterday, I got my paperwork back and learned my fingerprints were approved (not that I was worried) but then today I learn that Haiti may be changing its travel requirements. They are looking at requiring adopting parents to spend 2 weeks in Haiti bonding with their child while being observed by a social worker. Of course I feel bonding is important, I can't wait to spend 2 weeks with my child...but that requirement is just another change, a possible slow down? maybe.
I am unsure if this will pass, I am unsure if this will affect me, and once again I am reminded that adoption is filled with lots of these unsure moments. Tonight I will say an extra prayer that it will all work out. Tomorrow is a new day and one day closer to me becoming a mom
