I am so excited about being able to go to Created for Care , a retreat for adoptive moms in March! There originally was one in January that filled up in 9 hours! I missed my chance! But some incredible ladies knew that there were so many more mamas who needed this and planned an identical retreat in March. I waited to sign up for this one too. The problem for me is that it is in Atlanta, which means I would need to fly there all by myself and then drive an hour to the lodge...not very good about traveling alone...actually, I just haven't ever done it. But connected with a sweet friend whom we traveled with to Ethiopia to meet our daughter and she wanted to go too. So we have arranged our flights so that we will meet and leave Atlanta at approximately the same time! I am so excited and also very nervous. There are not many times that I can say I have been away from my kids overnight. If you are interested, there is still time to register for the March retreat.
Also, we are still waiting for our agency to get back to us about our home study. It has been there for a week now. Honestly, I'm a little disappointed it has taken this long. Our first agency took less than two days to review and approve our home study. Makes me wonder what might be wrong. It seems like we don't get emails from them until evening, when everyone has gone home for the day and even if we do get an email approving our home study, we can't do anything until Monday. All in God's time. Even though I know this time the wait involved and try not to get timelines in my head, I still hope. So when my hopes are dashed, it's a little disappointing. Well, at least hoping to hear something today either way.
