We received an email from our contact person at the agency on Monday welcoming us officially to the Korea program. She had a very nice letter with our date of application as 8/19/08. There was still no mention of the homestudy to Korea date so we became alittle nervous. I decided to drop her an email and ask. Well, apparently this little term is not all its cracked up to be and really doesn't mean much. She said 8/19 secures our spot in line and thats all that matters. She explained it further but we won't bore you with the details. The only important thing is we OFFICIALLY JOINED THE LIST ON 8/19 and thats our spot in line. Yahoo.
She sent along other info as well. Info on escorting and traveling. Reading this info made me tear up and get this shaking feeling all over like maybe, just maybe, this could really happen!!! We just feel more guarded than ever and feel like if we say it out in the universe then we'll jinx it. Its so hard after this year of disappointment to get excited, but we don't want to look back after we have our baby and wish we had celebrated the wait more. We'll work through it. When we have quiet time we find ourselves dreaming of a new little face. And he/she is oh so adorable!!!
