Still playing the waiting game

Those two calls back in February/March are still the only ones we've had so far. The waiting becomes a little harder with every month that passes...keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

My friend Elaine is the one I turn to in my times of despair. I'm so grateful to have her in my life. She and I met the first day of freshman year, not roommates, but neighbors a few doors apart, and were inseparable from the get-go. Though she moved away for a few years after college, she moved back to her hometown, only about 40 minutes away, and we've picked up where we left off. We still finish each others' sentences. She, too, is playing the adoption waiting game, and has been waiting longer than we have. Not sure what I'd do without her.
