And while it is good news for someone (who got their LOA today)…
it’s not good news for us.
No TA today.
Not gonna lie. I’m really sad.
Tried not to get my hopes up, but I guess I did.
Thanks for the sweet notes of encouragement y’all. I’m not sure how I’d manage on this roller-coaster ride without you.
Or my jumbo sized bag of chocolate Riesens.

Ann Marie says
Stefanie, I’m so sorry to hear this. With our adoption of Drew last year we were on the long, long, end of every part of the wait and we had many packages delivered to our agency that ended up being disappointments to us. I know how frustrating it can be.
Sending huge hugs.
Diana says
UGH is all I have to say about this!
Hugs Friend!

Mary says
I am wishin’, hopin’, and prayin’ that you get that TA soon!! I’ve been following your journey to Poppy for so long, and I can’t wait to follow along when you bring her home! (And for selfish reasons, I’m so looking forward to hearing all about her life in that SWI, and to see if you catch any glimpses of my baby girl!) I’ll be thinking of you!

In His Perfect time…it will come! Hope that doesn’t sound too preachy, but you know it’s on God’s Calendar and He knows when the perfect time for travel is..praying for you all!

Bev Gayman says
So sorry to hear it didn’t come. ๐ Sending hugs your way and prayers for
good news on Monday!
Gina says
Oh Stefanie, I’m sorry!
Our family recently discovered the song, Bring Our Children Home by Cindy Foote. Since it makes me cry hysterically and I can only imagine how emotional you may be right now, I wouldn’t normally encourage you to listen to it, but I keep feeling like I am suppose to… and who am I to argue with Him. Maybe it will bring you some comfort… the final verse always makes me smile through my tears =)
Our form of prayer for your family is my whole family singing this song and dancing around the kitchen… singing to Him in your honor!
xoxo
Christina says
Aw man! Monday will be the magic day…until then, enJOY your weekend and beautiful children! P.S. I have a love affair with Riesens, too!
