The Winds of Change

After long thought and many prayers, we have decided to change adoption agencies. Our new agency is smaller and more client-oriented. Since we had a completed dossier, we were placed on their waiting list as soon as I sent it to them. So, as of June 29th, we are officially waiting. At the same time, while researching for a VN quilt swap, I found the story of Our Lady of LaVang. She appeared to the people of LaVang in Vietnam, blessing them and answering their prayers. She has become my guiding light in our adoption journey.



Not long after we got home from Florida, Natalie came down with a fever that lasted 4 days. It would go up and then come down and go back up. After it finally broke, I noticed that she had red dots on her back that, within the next day, spread to her chest and face. Come to find out, she had Roseola! (Thank you WedMd) Within a day or two, she was spot and fever free.

The last development is....Jon is enrolled back in college. Though the major has changed. He is going to get his paralegal degree in preparation for law school. He had been fighting it for a long time. But, when push came to shove, he realized that being a lawyer might not be all that bad. And he does so love to argue!!!

    Hi Sue,

    I wanted to let you know that I met a couple yesterday who are also adopting from VN. They should be receiving (this is what their agency is saying) their referral sometime between December - February. She was telling me there are an abundance of little boys, but as for little girls not so many. Isn't it interesting that it's the opposite of China?

    How are you hanging in there?
