In the Wait

Not too long ago a man said to me, "Life is all about waiting, everyday we are waiting for something, someone, so what are you doing in the wait?" A rare moment in which I was completely caught off guard and speechless, yet agreeing with the concept. As I contemplate this concept in relation to our adoption process, there have been moments in which I have been paralyzed, unable to focus. Trapped to the point, that my life was on hold, not able to function. However there are moments in when I have been completely footloose and fancy free, nearly forgetting that we were in the adoption process. A roller coaster of emotions, always waiting. Today in the wait, I am washing baby clothes, and thinking about necessities. Tomorrow I may be trapped, but I am always in motion. We are coming for you baby Andrew!! We love you!!
