Tired

Tired of waiting. Tired of trying to be proactive and not get anywhere. Tired of hearing about how many kids are waiting in the system. Really, where are they then? Tired of hearing of others who have been waiting less than half the time we have been waiting, getting matched with kids. I know I shouldn't have that attiude, but it's tough. We've been in the process for a long time and it's extremely emotionally draining.

We are still waiting to hear about a possible match...it could be the first of the year before we know anything though. I want more than anything to just start planning on bringing these kids home. Start buying items for their rooms, start looking for bunk beds for the boys' room...but I don't want to set myself up for a heartbreak...so we'll just wait it out...some more.

I dug the blanket I started out of the closet last night so I can start working on it again. I'll post pictures of it soon :)

Things have been pretty busy for us lately though. T has football practice twice a week and a game every Saturday morning. He starts violin lessons this week too which is twice a week during school and every Thursday at 7:30 am...yikes. Cub Scouts start next week too...ugh. Thankfully that's only three times a month. His schedule is busier than mine is : /

Well..I'm going to take my 'Debbie Downer' attitude back to work now...it's just been one of those days so far...feeling drained and down. It's supposed to be a beautiful weekend though so maybe that will help :)

Have a good day everyone!
