Nervous

The adoption community....mostly the community of waiters...thrive on speculation. This mornings speculation is that people with September dates won't make it through court, or not get their referrals before the court cut off of June 15th. I am choosing not to believe this latest speculation. But it does put a hint of fear in my heart. I will go nuts if I have to wait until October. Yep, certifiably crazy. But I know my daughter is waiting. So I am going with that. I choose to be positive...I choose to have hope....I choose to believe.

Edit to Add....
Okay, so Polly Anna has left the building. Got word back from our specialist. She says to plan on a June referral...but keep in mind our worse case scenario which is no referral until fall after courts re-open. She stressed that they really have no way of knowing for sure when a family will get a referral and to prepare for the worst. SO that said...my mind is trying to prepare for a possibly LONG summer. I still really feel she is in care and waiting for us....so a little hope is going to remain.
