Hoping it will be 2009 not 2010! We moved from #33 to #8 in 8 months on the girl list, so it's possible that things will pick up again and you will move up that list at lightning speed! I can't wait to see that you're movin' on up that list and closer to your precious angel.
Dear Kori:
I've been a fan of your sewing at Club Thread for a long time. I found your blog through Sewing Mamas and used to know you through Amity. I remember your desire for a girl then, too.
I just wanted to tell you to hold tight, your little girl will come to you. I went to China in Sept 2005 and brought home my daughter, my youngest child. I know how crazymaking the wait can feel.
I hope it goes MUCH faster than you're thinking, and you're holding your sweet GIRL soon!
