I have often wondered about your process, but hated to come out and ask you.

My cousin and his wife are getting ready to adopt their second daughter from China in the coming months. And we have good friends who were just put on "delay" because apparently the Chinese have decided that keeping a few girls around is not a bad thing.

I hope that you will get the confirmation in July!!!! You have been so patient and deserve to have "Mary Joyce" in your home sooner than later!

It isn't so much that they were put on "delay," as it is that the process has slowed down for everyone. One of the major reasons is that there have been many more applications to adopt, and there are basically the same number of babies available for adoption. There are other reasons and speculated reasons, too, but the pace seems to be leveling out a little bit, thankfully.

So excited for you that you may get paperwork in July, and your baby girl in September or so ... gosh, with all these boy babies being born to Pet Talk families, Mary Joyce is gonna be our girl representative! At least until Misha's baby sister makes HER appearance, anyway! She'll have her choice of baby beaus!

Keeping you in my prayers and can't wait to see those first pics of Mary Joyce.
