At a time like this, it can be very hard to think about how long the process to adopt can take. In search of others, I have found some blogs where other families are documenting their process. The rules are changing so much, so it's helpful to see the other families' experiences of process and delays. Some encouraging. Some a little scary. There is so much uncertainty in the India side of things. Delays tend to be really long for even the simplest matters. I start remembering the previous experience with Sofi. It was frustrating and sad to see the snail-like progress. This time, I should be more prepared. But it's hard to be prepared for the fact that you know your new daughter is out there, and you just want to be with her immediately. Sofi is excited. She is saying that she will share all her toys with Tara and they will play together all the time. She understands that she is going to get a little sister from India. And so far, she is looking forward to it. Being an only child can be hard. And she sees some of her friends have siblings. So I think she is looking forward to having someone at home. And given that she is quite bossy, probably really excited that she will have to tell Tara how things work. A little mama already.
