Good news for Haiti CAS families!

We found out last week that two families from Carolina Adoption Services (CAS) received their official referrals from IBESR! It's bitter sweet news,  in that IBESR is finally issuing referrals out, and that CAS is part of that group, but sad because we are still waiting for our official referral.  I'm happy and excited for the two families. I know one of the families through email and Facebook conversations. She has been waiting for over a year, so I know she is truly excited.  Hopefully we can learn from her experience during her bonding trip, any information we may need to know for when we travel.  I'm still hopeful and optimistic that we will hear something within the next six months.  It's still really hard waiting and not knowing when things will happen. I feel like my family and friends think it's not going to happen at all lol. I tell them we just have to wait and be patient, over and over and over. I just really have no other information. :( :(

In other news, I'm busy with graduate school. I decided I needed to do something during this waiting period. I applied to The George Washington University Graduate program-Clinical Management and Leadership. I was accepted and started a couple weeks ago. All the work and reading definitely helps keep my mind off of the adoption.  Also, my sister is getting married in a few weeks, so I'm excited about that as well :)
