Not Much of an Update

Yes, I am sorry to say that I do not have much of an adoption update. I have been very patient not to contact the agency to enquire where I am on "the list" but I figured it had been almost three months since I last pestered them.
So, while I was coming back from a client meeting in Kingston I checked messages and there was one from my agency. I had sent an email a few days back asking how I was progressing. When I contacted them in January I was informed that I was approx. 12 on the list to adopt a baby girl. Well, you can imagine my shock and surprise to get a message saying that I was number 25 on the list.
I was a bit frazzled but I also knew there had to be a mistake. So I called back to question the grave error. On my cell phone for 25 min discussing this and what I found out was that I am 25 on the list but they have done somewhat of an amalgamation of the girls list and either/or list. I don't think I will really ever know the details but I am hoping that this is a very fair system for all of us who are waiting to adopt a baby.
I guess you can say I am on track if that track is going to Uncertainty Avenue. What I can say is that I will have a proposal by the end of 2009. And we all know how time flies. I will turn the corner one day and to my surprise I will be right where I need to be.

  1. The wait is agonizing, but you are correct, one day you turn the corner, and there you are, on the final lap to your child.
