Well I wish that I could say that I was posting just great news......but I'm not. We got our dossier back from our old agency today after four weeks of waiting.....well it was incomplete with missing documents and none of the translations were in with our paperwork. I cannot express how frustrated we are. There are days that I just truly feel knocked down. Chris and I both struggle everyday with this journey. However, everyday I get a sign from God that we are supposed to do this. We will get our baby Adler and she is out there waiting on us. She needs us and we are going to protect her and love her with our whole hearts. I already love her every day and am fighting for her right now. I just wish someone could tell me why it is so incredibly hard and difficult. There are so many children out there all over the world who just want a mom and dad.

Hi Jessica!
I am a single Kaz mom-to-be and have been following your blog. I know these delays are hard, but in the end the timing will all be perfect. Each delay is hapening so that you will end up with the child that is meant for you.
Stay strong. Good things are to come.

Sorry for the incomplete dossier you received. There are some questions that may never be answered as far as the timing of all this but look at those who have gone before you. His timing is all you want because then and only then is everything right! Adler may still be in her birthmom's tummy right now. Even though it's hard, don't lose hope. Adler will come home at the perfect time! Love to you!
You are going to love World Partners. We used them for our Kaz adoption in 2004! Good Luck

Hey there Jessica and Chris,
I so understand the roller coaster ride. I also understand the little signs from God. We have been at this less time than you and my emotions have been all over the board.
Just keep your faith and Hope in God and He will come through. It is when we put our faith in people that we are often let down!
Glad to have your blog site now...

Hi guys,
Welcome to your new agency and the "family" loop! The agency and the people are simply awesome.
I really hope you get the dossier mess straightened out and are back on track soon.
I looked at your favorite blogs below and had to smile. Some of those folks are very good friends I met through this whole process- theirs and mine. Small world!
I truly am happy you made the agency switch, and I know you won't regret it. Welcome!!

I am a single Kaz mom to be and have been at this for a year and a half--I too wonder why it is so hard to connect a child that needs a home with a parent desperately wanting a child. I don't understand but I still have faith that my child will find me and that your child will find you--I believe God does have a perfect match for us out there.
Hi,
Thanks for posting on my blog. Thea told me about your journey. I will keep you in my prayers. Adoption really is not for the faint of heart. Before I began my journey, I felt like I was a person of full faith--this has really tested me beyond words. I just keep trusting that it will all work out as planned. Keep in touch!
Take care,
Tonya
Glad to have you as part of the WPA family. We adopted our son over three years ago. I know things are tough now, but one day you will know the joy of meeting your little one and the feeling that it was all worth it. Stay strong!
