no no no

Sorry for the dramatics on FB last night. I got news from my agency that since I was delayed, they started up with two families and won't be finished with them until June. My new travel date it somewhere around June 9. It just hit me like someone sucker punched me in the gut. It's not the worse news in the world but it just felt like it last night.

As far as I know the little guy is still available and all is well there. Time will tell.

    Lisa, I know that it will all work out, but I am so disappointed for you! I don't understand why you can't go while these other families are there. Is it that they don't have enough translators, drivers, etc? If I'm this bummed, I can only imagine how you must feel. It will happen, and definitely don't give up, but AAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!

    I am SO disappointed for you and us as we were very much looking forward to meeting you and hanging out with you in AMS. I think we're going to be in Almaty for a couple of days before heading home around the 3rd weekend in June so hopefully we can get together then and I can learn all about your little boy!

    Lisa, I am so disappointed for you. I remember the same thing happening to me...had to wait for other families to finish in order to finally travel. It was so difficult. Did you get your passport back so you can earn some $ in the meantime? ((Hugs)) Q

    Hi Lisa,

    keep hanging in there. There will be delays and twists and turns all the way. Just think of this as more practice for your patience, and accepting that you are not in control of this process. Janet

    I remember writing a blog post when I was having delays wondering why these things happen. The only conclusion I came up with at the time was that it taught us perservence so that we would never give up but always fight for our children whenever they needed us to--whether now or in the future.
    It helped me to try to find a purpose and try to learn from it.
    Still--I know how hard that is when you are in the middle of things.
    I hope your next travel dates come soon.

    WTF, that is so unfair!! But June 9th is not so far away, and I am proud of you for holding it together as well as you have -- I would be a trainwreck!! Keep fighting for your little man and we will all be standing behind you. HUGS!!!

    So sorry for the delay! I assumed you were on your way already. Prayers for you and your little one for a quick few weeks until it's your turn!!

    Hang in there. I know how hard these last few days are, along with the repeated delays. You have been SO STRONG and now is your time. Just pack and repack, meet with your friends, go to a movie and do things you will not be able to do once Sam gets home. Your departure is right around the corner! xo
