Slowly Moving / Fishing

We have moved up a few spots in line and they now say it will take 7-10 months for an infant boy.  This of course changes monthly depending on how many referrals there were.  I am still praying for some quicker movement so the babes don't have to stay in the orphanage longer than they have to.

Since there's not much news on the adoption front - here's a picture of my fish I caught in the Gulf last weekend.  It is my biggest fish so far, a King Mackerel.  My brother-in-law Jeff also caught a Nurse Shark!  Gross.

Update

On 5/4 we will have been waiting 2 months.  They have gone surprisingly fast.  At the end of April our Agency said it was now taking 8-10 months for an infant boy referral...before it was 5-8 months.  So it seems we are back to the 8 month countdown again.  I will definitely learn patience during this process - or I hope so!  Someone posted that if all families submitted to Embassy in May pass, that would open up room for 20 more children in the transition home.  That would cause some more movement, that all the waiting families would love to see!
