It has been 3.5 weeks since our Article 5 was signed. 63 days since LOSC. Still no Travel Approval. Every time the phone rings I feel like my heart is going to pound out of my chest. Is this it? {as she runs furiously to the caller id} Nope, it's _____(not my agency)_____. I may win the record for hitting refresh on RQ at least 1 million times before this is over. I wonder if she gives out awards for that? Anyway. Almost everything adoption related has happened on a Friday. Our referral. News of our PA. Our LOSC. Our NVC cable. Delivery of our Article 5 to CCAA. All on a Friday. I was hoping today was going to be a Friday repeat. Oh well. I guess I can stop now. It is 1:45 pm in New York. I'm sure DHL has already made their rounds without leaving behind our prized document. One more week down the tubes. Ugggggghhhhhhh! I know. I know. He is never late. He is never early. He is always right on time. Yes. I know. If you figure out the definition of "right on time", please let me know. I think it's Swahili for "back off woman--you'll get it when I want you to get it". In the meantime I'm off to take a nap. It's the only time my wheels aren't turning.

oh i remember that horrible feeling. trust me before you know it you will be emailing me asking me how to get the jet lag to wear off:)
I know how hard it is. Int'l adoption will make you crazy or very patient. For me...a little of both. I hope you hear soon.

LOL! I think there have been days when I could give you a run for your money on the "most frequent refresh button pusher" award on RQ. In fact, I think there are many, many, many of us competing for that award on any given day! :)
Praying it happens next week! We have got to get your beautiful girl home ASAP!!!
