My Lawyer is Right…Waiting is the Hardest Part

Ok, so she was right, the wait is the hardest.  What’s worse is I’m already looking at my watch and I’m early into the waiting process.  I’ve had some cases referred to me, some fell through right away due to baby health issues and some are still in the wait and hopes that the BM might like me.  While waiting for feedback from BM’s, just waiting for referrals can be tough.  What’s hard is being ready, having everything lined up and ready to go, yet having to wait wait wait.  I know how marketing and getting the word out works, normally the more you get out there the more chances one has to find what they are looking for.  It’s tough when you only have a few referrals in the works, the odds of thing lining up are tough.  Yet I just keep looking and checking websites and talking to people and letting everyone know I’m looking for a child.

It will happen but as with most things in life, probably not fast enough. :)

Now is a good time to practice what I’ve learned as a Buddhist and just be in the moment, creating suffering by looking to the future and looking at the watch won’t do any good.

I guess I’ll just go sit….

Namaste,

Kris

Adoption Update: A Few In The Works

Ok, I’m thinking I might look back at this day and say “wow, I sure got excited for nothing” but then again, I could look back and say “that was the day I first thought of you my child”.  Just got a couple of referrals to look at and they seem great.  Nothing to be done unless the birth mom’s say they like me and pick me, then I can dive into questions and investigating history and all that.

BUT….the exciting part is I actually have my profile out to some parents and with any luck they will like me.

More to come….. :)

Goodbye Abd’E Hakim, It Was An Honor to Know You

We met you in Egypt last November and we listened to your wisdom and stories about the ancient ones of Egypt.  You held the history of the indigenous ones, you held the wisdom.  Your smile and you chuckle at my jokes made me giggle.  It was an honor to be in your presence and be welcomed in your home in Cairo to hear your stories.  The world is dimmer without you here, we recently learned of your passing in the last few weeks.

Until we meet again Hakim, Shukran.

Namaste,

Kris, Trisha, Alie & Christina

Dreams Last Night

Last night I dreampt I was hanging out with the Obamas.  It was fun but I hope when the Republican Convention comes around I don’t dream about haning out with McCain.

Starbuck’s Cup Zen of the Day

Sometimes the “The Way I See It” on the sides of Starbuck’s cup are very zen….like this one from Desi Di Nardo (Author and Poet from Toronto)

The way I see it

Isn’t necessarily

The way you see it

Or the way it is

Or ought to be

What’s more important

Is that we’re all

Looking for it

And a way to see it
