After a couple weeks, I called. The social worker called me back today and said, "The next step is to review your home study. We need you to call your agency and release it to us." WHAT??? I thought I"d already done that!! Two weeks went by and NOTHING was happening? My heart aches!
So I just called my original social worker who did the home study. Guess who's out of town until JUNE TWENTY FIRST???
These issues with timing are incredibly frustrating and disappointing. Just when you think you're about to turn a corner, an obstacle appears.

I could kick the door! I am so sorry this is incredibly frustrating! But every set back has to be Him having an ultimate plan behind it. He has to get all the players lined up. Some players in the process aren't as cooperative! ;) Hang tight sista!
Ugh!!! I feel your pain...waiting and then setbacks are the worst. I'm so sorry! I wonder if you call again and ask another social worker to send it for you? I'm sure you tried that. I'm praying for you!
Admittedly I know nothing about SW and adoption agencies, but don't they have people on call when they leave??? I mean, come on, people... there are some serious emotions and anxiety attached to the adoption process! So sorry for you to have to deal with this!!
I totally get this; I've been going through similar situations! Every time you think you're ready to move to the next step, something happens and you're stagnant. I'll say a prayer that we both can get through these obstacles!
GRRRR, I grrrr for you. And tonight I will do better than that- I will pray (again). But for now, while I cook, I grrr.
We've had about a million set-backs in our adoption plans. I thought I'd loose my mind over some of them - esp. the stupid ones. I'm surprised my steering wheel is still round after all the beatings it's taken! Amazingly, God worked through the muck to find us just the babies He intended for us. His plan. His timing. It will all work out. You will see. Blessings, Danya
