AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

That would be an accurate description of my feelings about this adoption right now.

The week before last we received and email that said we would likely have our court date in Ghana last week...guess that didn't happen because we never heard anything else.

Then our adoption agent sent us this email that said, "Congratulations! You went to court and now are the proud mommy and daddy of a little girl!"...Yay, right? NO! She didn't read the attachment correctly. It was just the declaration that the biomom agreed to give her to the Social Welfare Department for adoption.

We've had no futher updates since then.

So here we are in the land of neverending waiting. I'm trying so hard to be patient, but this is the worst feeling ever!!! I want to know every little detail about what is happening in our little girl's day to day. Even more than that I want to hold her and smell her and love her.

Oh well, here we are another day with no news.

There are three other families over there now and I've been reading their blogs and updates fervently. I memorize every little detail and I'm sure I've driven them crazy with my questions!

Evidently, there have been some bumps in the visa process and they have had to stay over there much longer than expected. Our adoption agency is working on smoothing things over. We are hoping that we will not have to be in Ghana as long as they have been (one family has been there for almost 6 weeks!) We knew this process was new and the kinks are still being worked out...we are just trying to be patient.

Please everyone- send us positive energy, thoughts and prayers....I am needing them right now to keep me from going nuts with all this waiting...
