The Long Wait
Well the wait rumors have become downright scary. The Rumor Queen has had reports that 2007 parents may not get a referral unto 2009 or later. We had expected to travel during the Olympics at the LATEST and now this. The last two batches of referrals covered 2 days and 3 days. At this rate China is taking four to five months to complete one month worth of applicants. Jeff and I still have a smidge of hope that the whole thing could turn around. In the meantime we have asked our Home Study Agency to give us two new copies of our home study. One for Ethiopian Adoption and one for Domestic Adoption. They agreed to do both forfree because our original home study is not that
old. So we are prepared to take action in a few
different directions. Surrogacy is even still on
the table. We just know that in the end there
will be a person in our house that drools!
And it won't be Jeff or I!

One more Ladybug sighting......
Oh and one more....
this morning when Jeff and I went to drop off the van to have some work done there was an old golden retriever at the shop. I asked the woman working there what the dogs name was and she said, "Ladybug." So there...that makes three ladybug sightings in a 24 hour period.

Ladybug sightings
So in the Chinese Adoption community Ladybug sightings are considered a sign...or good luck. Yesterday I had two. One of the real variety and one embroidered on a hat which I then had to purchase. The first one was while I was working in the yard. Generally when I am in Florida and I feel a bug land on me it is reason to scream and flail and run in circles. When I looked down at this tickly thing on my hand I saw the tiniest ladybug I have ever seen. She was perfectly round and her red was bright and her black circles really stood out. I watched her for a minute and then blew on her and she flew away. Later that evening I was at a Red Sox game and decided to check out the gift shop. When I walked into the little kids clothing area there was this hat. It is not ONLY a Red Sox hat but it has Ladybugs and a red thread twirling around indicating her meandering path. Perfect. It was a must have. So my little pile of Pia clothes keeps growing.
