This is not to say that we are not beyond discouraged right now. We recieved word of a referral on June 22. If you do the math that is 7 weeks ago. Supposedly we were just waiting on the "official" word. Well, here we are 7 weeks later and still nothing. No word about how much longer nor what in the dickens is taking so blooming long. The thought that our littles ones are in an orpahange and there is not one single thing that we can do to get to them any faster if the utter most frustrating and draining thing that I have ever experienced. I think if I allowed myself to harp on this I would be a total metal case right now. The only option that we have at this moment is to give it to God and trust that he is working things out for a greater cause. It is my personal mission to find "daily happys". So in a desperate attempt to focus on the things that make me smile, here are a few of my things that have made me smile today...just don't judge me:)
1) My dogs...who are the sweetest, snuggliest dogs ever. One of these dogs is like an added appendage to me. I can't do anything without her. Whether I am washing dishes, blow drying my hair or in the bed...she is attached to me 24/7. When I am home she is NEVER more than 3 ft from me.
2) My sequined zebra striped shoes. Ummm...sequins, zebra stripes and SHOES! Three of my favorite things all rolled into one item...this definately makes me smile:):):)
3) Multicolored staples...this way I never know when a new color is going to come out. It makes for a nice little surprise during the day! Don't laugh...I get my smiles wherever I can:)

Things that made me smile today:
1) That you typed metal case instead of mental case.
2) Your gypsy shoes.
3) The fact that having something to pick on you about makes me forget that I walked out the door this morning to work with NO shoes on (had to turn around at the end of the street & get them.) And when I got to the end of my driveway (after the first return home)...I remembered that forgot my lunch on the counter. Sheesh!
Hope ya'll get some good (productive) news soon. We're all anxious with you guys.
