It may be God's timing, but I've got a human watch ticking in my heart.

I know it has been way too long since I updated. And I planned to do a big update on how well things were going this weekend. But today has been a bit of a let down for us. Quite a big dissapointment, that I suppose I'm taking harder than I should. Once again beaurocracy has got one over on us. I know it's to be expected in the whole adoption process (and I know that we've had less of it so far than many do), but no one is pretending that emotions don't run high here. We've been set back a few months more. We know that in the scheme of life two months isn't much at all, but for various reasons of great emotional and symbolic (and private) importance, November had become very much a sign of hope for us. A watershed before Christmas. A bit of a gift even.

And now that November gift is more or less gone.

I know that's all a bit criptic for now, but I'll have to tell you about it (some of it, anyway) later.
