Russian Adoption DVA

Bawling My Eyes Out . . .

Tuesday, May 01, 2007

On a whim I decided to go check the Russian Data Bank site.

They've updated the picture of V!! The last time I looked, about a month ago, it was still her tiny newborn-ish picture.

She is SO BIG! She looks like she has chicken pox marks too :o( . Oh, my heart is just breaking into a bazillion pieces. She has grown so much.

Y'all please pray for me! I guess I've been in a denial - kind of numb place. Every day, around the house, looking at the pictures of us together was carrying me through. But seeing her growing so much without us is about all I can take.

I'm just shaking. Hubby has already gone to bed, I may have to wake him.

Oh getting new pics is so hard... a blessing to get another glimpse of your child, but so bittersweet to see her growing and changing. I'm praying that the ball gets rolling and your V can come home to you... SOON! (and for peace and comfort in the waiting...may it not be long now.)

Hang in there, Suz. Something has got to break with reaccreditations soon. And Baby V has to get home soon. You'll be in my prayers.

I'm so sorry that you're having to endure this wait. It's not fair in any way.
Hold onto hope. She'll be home soon. And I don't think you'll let anyone come close to touching her when she does for at least the first month. She's your girl. I'm praying that you're reunited very soon.

Oh Suz..... I wish I had words that would in some way comfort you... But there are no words that can even touch the sides of how you are feeling... Please know that I think of you everyday hoping that there is some sort of news to keep you going till you have your little one in your arms.....
