Time Flies

So I know that I am going to be put on some adoption blog hit list for this one, but I really feel like the wait time for the referral is flying by. I mean seriously, I looked at our ticker today, and it seems like just yesterday that the little elephant was barely even pulling away from the left side. Now he's about a third of the way across.

I know that most people have a seriously hard time with the wait and considering how impatient I am typically, you would think that I would be too. But nope!!! It feels like it is just moving right along to me. I think that a large part of this is the fact that I had set expectations going into this regarding a wait time. I notice that a lot of people move fairly quickly from the decision to adopt, then into the process. Whereas we have been talking about this for years, knowing that we wouldn't start until last fall, so I got a lot of the urgent "I want it to happen now" out of me I think and had been reading the adoption blogs for so long that I had a realistic expectation set.

Wow, sounds like I'm awfully proud of myself doesn't it? Didn't mean to. Just wanted to comment on how quick that little baby elephant is moving!!!
