WHERE O' WHERE IS OUR LITTLE GIRL?????

NOT in Kemerovo. Joe and I just got a call from "C" today around 5:00 telling us that there will be no more invites to travel to Kemerovo until AT LEAST January. Kemerovo said they filled their quota for the year. Talking about our bubble bursting!!!! Every day now we have been on pins and needles because we were told that there was a good possibility that there would be another girl referral from Kemerovo by the end of July. So, EVERY DAY we have been hoping it would be OUR day....and then we get this news.

C said that she would recommend NOT waiting in Kemerovo since we did not receive a referral from there. Joe and I totally agreed, so our dossier will now be sent to another region to wait on our baby girl. It's o.k. though, our agency has been moving pretty quick with the girl referrals so we feel positive about it being not too long from now anyway.....HOPEFULLY!!

I DO feel really bad, however, for a few of the families (one really good friend) who have already received their referrals from Kemerovo and do not know when they will be able to travel to meet their children...I know this has to be so difficult for them.

I guess we'll find out soon enough what region our daughter will be in.....hopefully SOONER than LATER!!!

I'm sorry this happened to you guys and I hope you get a new region and referral very soon.

I am so sorry to hear this! I saw the post on the CSS group and had to come check your blog to see if you were effected! I'm so grateful you didn't get any farther and can move to a new region with a clean slate. HUGS and let us know your new region once you know! :-)

I am so sorry for this set back. Trust me, I am the queen of set backs, so I have great empathy. I KNOW she is close to being in your arms. I just feel it!

Hi Guys- I've been reading your blog for quite a while now- and I know all about setbacks in adoption too- BIG SETBACKs. One thing I learned from our "setback" was that even though it is incredibly painful, and you wonder what on earth God is doing in your life and WHY??? He can turn it into a miracle beyond what you ever imagined. I think in a short time you will see that these changes you've experienced lately are all a part of God's plan in bringing you to your chosen child. You are one day closer to her than you were yesterday. We'll be watching your blog for more news and praying it comes quickly!
