still no news

We have all been chatting back and forth on this "gender issue" No one seems to know a thing. Even my agency, who the announcement came from, is in the dark.  Other agencies have not heard anything.

So I am tested again, and have to say that I still have faith that I am where I am supposed to be at this time.  There is nothing I can do anyway but explore my other options should this not work out. Right?? Until my dossier comes back to me, legally there is nothing else I can do?  I can't start the process with another country.....I just can't anyway....something keeps telling me that my Sam is in Kazakhstan.

Lisa: Years ago (when I was going through the long process of waiting, and flip-flopping between Kaz and Guatemala), I was allowed to go ahead and prepare two dossiers, with a plan to change countries with INS (short process) if Kaz did not move forward. It was an option that I never had to use, but it was a possibility.

I have not heard anything either...and then part of me wonders just how picky Kaz will be on this issue if it is an issue. We're approved for either gender and you have to read to the final page of our home study to see that it says "male or female up to 36 months of age, with a preference of a female as young as possible"... This is definitely frustrating and trying and not for the faint of heart.

Hang in there Lisa!! My agency hasn't heard anything about this issue of gender selection- this may be nothing- stay postive- I know its easier said than done- but just know that you have lots of support!!

Lisa,
I totally understand how stressfull all this is. Try to stay as positive as possible and remember - If your child is in Kaz then this is just a set back, not the end.

Glad to hear you're pushing forward. If you believe that Sam is in Kaz, then I believe he is as well and you just have to wait until he's ready for you!

Great attitude Lisa. I know how hard it is to stay positive and I applaud you for maintaining that faith. I think your Sam is in Kazakhstan also and you will get there. Just in case, it's okay to explore options and just keep them on the back burner.

Please send me your email. I had it once but I guess I didn't save it.

Have you heard anything? Are you tired of answering that question? I certainly am but this is a new week so just maybe....

Looking for Sam

This is a blog of my quest to adopt a child from Kazakhstan. Enjoy!
