Because you are reading this, you are clients of ANLC. Let me first say, you made the right choice. My husband and I adopted in 2009 and 2013. The first adoption we were matched in 4 months. The second adoption was over a year. Either way, the wait can be full of anxiety, full of questions and uncertainty, full of still grieving for that baby you couldn’t conceive on your own. It is natural to feel all of those feelings, but don’t let them overtake the other feelings you should be experiencing of anticipation, hopefulness, knowing this road you are taking will end with the birth of your baby and becoming a family that you have dreamed of for so very long. I have helped many of my friends and other adoptive couples experiencing nfertility and I encourage them to think of this as the most amazing journey you will take in your life, a journey that will end with becoming a mommy and daddy. Don’t lose focus on that. ANLC has your best interest at heart and they are professional, caring and compassionate throughout the whole process. As you go through these upcoming holidays, the emotions will no doubt be on that roller-coaster. My only advice to you is that you have the power and control to either choose to focus on the negative or choose to focus on the positive. Think of your journey; focus on what’s yet to come; believe, because it will happen. God bless.
