Still waiting

This adoption process is going to be difficult for me. I tend to be a little impatient to waits. I've written this post a couple of times over the last few days, but hopefully tonight is the night to post. I've been a little crabby for the past few days, and I see others moving through segments of the process and I am at a standstill. There is nothing I can do but wait for others. At least during the referral wait I can craft and get the nursery ready. The anxiety that is spurring this negativity? I mailed my I-600 almost three weeks ago and I have yet to receive a receipt. I'm all afraid that I messed something up! I know, I know, welcome to the club, right? On a positive note, with the increasing wait at my agency, I'm telling myself that it will probably be two years before I meet my child. See, if it happens sooner then I'll be thrilled!

Hey Cara,

Hang in there! The I-171H wait was the longest for me. But getting it was the BEST feeling. It will come. I can tell you that it took me about 3 months to get a fingerprinting appointment in NY. I never got a receipt. Hope that helps a little.
