The rumors have more or less died down. I have nothing to report, with regards to what is happening (or not happening) with the referrals. Travel approvals, however, have been arriving this week for families who have already received their referral. In fact, my girlfriend Mardi was notified by our agency today that her travel approval in on it's way from China!!! I'm so excited for her.
As for me....well, I could use a little distraction from all the adoption drama. So, Doug and I (along with some friends) are going to a Bob Schneider concert tonight. WE LOVE BOB! The boys are going to spend the night with Sarah (thank you Sarah...AGAIN), so we are footloose and fancy free.
I plan on staying pretty busy from now until the the end of the weekend...Then next week I'll go back to enjoying more adoption drama!!! This will end someday, right?!
(I've added a few Bob Schneider songs to my playlist for your listening pleasure!)
Dear baby girl,
I know we still have "mountains to climb, hills to get over, roads to hoe", before we can all be home together. But we are getting so close. When I say I need to distract myself, it's only from the pain of this wait, not from you. My thoughts of you are with me constantly. Everywhere I go. Even to this silly concert! I can't wait until we can shake our booties together. We'll invite Vienna over to show us how to do it right...that girl has got moves. Just imagining the two of you dancing around the living room together puts a smile on my. See how happy you make me already??!!
UPDATE: Here's a pic of me backstage with Bob after the show. JB took it. It's kind of a funny story how, or I should say why, JB & I decided to walk backstage, but not something I'll blog about. It was a fun night, though.

Go kick up your heels and have fun. Dream of the wonderful days to come! Soon my friend.
Oh Mary...I so wish this week brought your daughter's sweet face to you. You can still share my thunder Saturday. :) You ARE afterall, getting your referral very, very soon!
Enjoy your weekend, run naked through the house, and have fun!
p.s. So you not only have crafts, sewing, athletics, good looks, etc,etc....you also have musical talent in your family! My gosh girl! :)
Can't wait to see you Saturday!!
Hey woman, have fun tonight! Denise said she saw you at assembly and you looked FANTASTIC! Keep yourself busy, that's all you can do....SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEE!
Footloose and fancy free...LOVE it!! Enjoy the distraction, it may be your last free night for a while. ;)
Your letter is beautiful and i can't wait to see all of you rocking out together!
Hope you had a great time last night. Sorry I missed out on all the fun...
I'm looking foward to the adoption drama starting up again at the beginning of next week:)
Have fun at Mardi's shower!!!! Can't wait to hear all about it!
I missed this entire post. I must have been snoozing. It was fun to see you at the shower!

Does Mary look super hot or what!!!! I had the advantage of seeing her in person right before she left and MAN did she look good. Im surprised we didn't get a picture of Bob Schneider kissing your foot (or something). You definitely dont have to worry about a double chin showing up in all your China pictures. You are very "camera ready"
P.S. You'll have to get your video camera over to take some shots of Vienna dancing before "someone" steals all the thunder.
Love you sis,
