It was just a matter of time...

It sounds like about 180 files have been matched, pairing adoptive parents with orphans - and the notices (referrals) are on the way out to the families around the world. We're hearing news of many families who are recieving these referrals, and they are of course just thrilled to pieces. We're also hearing news from the families who are actually in Nepal meeting their children - and it is absolutely heartwarming! While there was a brief slowdown in matching over the summer, it appears things are moving for the time being. It's so fun to witness everyone's joy over learning about their children.

What does this mean for us? We don't know. We're really happy with our agency, although they are very cautious on giving us much information until it is 100% certain(probably for very good reason). So, we don't know anything about our personal situation in terms of timing. (I think the question of "when" is something no one can answer at this point...) It is what it is. Things will likely slow down again for the festival season coming up in Nepal - more on that next time. We'll continue to wait, our time will come.

In the meantime - we celebrate the families who are meeting their children! What a beautiful thing.

Namaste

PS - I've decided not to take the blog down for now.
