We have some good friends who have returned from Nepal with their child. And some other good friends are preparing to travel to Nepal to meet and bring home their child.
This is all to say that now, the stakes are higher. Whereas last year, international adoption was all more of a "concept", now the idea of bringing home a child from Nepal seems much more real and tangible.
These days, I waver back and forth between sheer excitement, and sheer panic. (Thankfully, my husband does his best to keep me grounded - not an easy task.)
So... the mantra continues to be "our baby will find us." And in the meantime, we keep fresh flowers on the shrine, celebrate with our friends, and keep the faith.
Namaste

Indeed the baby will find you. As illogical as it sounds (especially while waiting) it is so true. It is scary since you wonder how a baby who don't even know to talk figure its way home. But the baby will. My baby did. She is everything I ever prayed for and a lot more. We stare at her every moment of the day wondering how she did it.
While I am typing she is pointing to the screen and saying "ABCD" (which she started to say only day before yesterday).
Praying for it to happen sooner and easier.
