Wow the waiting....it is so very hard. I'm becoming discouraged by our inability to get in touch with our social worker easily. It took 5 days of repeated phone calls, voicemails, and emails before Jared finally caught up with her this afternoon. She has completed our home study and passed it to her supervisor for approval. However, she as well as her supervisor have been out of the office for various reasons over the past several days and won't be back in the office until after the holidays now. SO frustrating. Now we're thinking that we won't be officially licensed until mid-January. I know that God has not forgotten us and that all these speed bumps are His good and loving and sovereign will for us. These things I know, yet must continually remind myself of, especially when my first response is that of impatient grumbling.
