Not Stable

I am not stable enough for this. We got word that our USCIS approval got to CHSFS today. (yay!) Another ET coordinator faxed it to Ethiopia so that they know what to look for when it comes. They are working on our behalf but it doesn't change the fact that I'm just not stable.

There have been many travel dates for March 6, one for the 13th and one even for the 20th given out. I've said before that both the people we were getitng to watch the kids while we were gone were going to be gone themselves on the 20th so....

I have had enough crying. I know it won't be all fun and games when he gets here. There will be tantrums, and hitting, punching, there will probably be moments when I want to send him back (as I did my other two children, by the way) but I'm ready for every single emotion that will come my way. I am ready and I KNOW he is ready. Why in the world isn't everyone else ready for us?

Apparently my workout didn't help my attitude. Maybe Buffalo Wild Wings will. FREAK!

Hey Tesi, you know my prayers are being sent heaven ward for Tariku to join our family. I know God's plan is the best; so many reasons He is having us wait. He teaches us patience, self control, and He grows our faith every moment. I love you, respect you, admire you, and appreciate your heart! MamaT
