And Still Waiting...

We were licensed in September. Got one call for a sibling group out of our range so we said no. Even though we felt terrible about it, we knew it was the wrong fit for us. The right fit came a couple of weeks later with 4 and 5 year old sisters, but the call came the day I found out my father had passed. We had to go out of town for several days so again had to say no. After that we got two separate calls for much older kids that we are not set up for. So we continue to wait. No calls since end of October. Our resource worker says we could be waiting up to a year for our age range, 0-5. It's hard to be patient, make plans, set work schedules, etc. We're just taking it as it comes, or not. We're considering getting an independent homestudy so we can be open to kids out of our state. Not sure what else to be done beyond that. It's difficult when people ask what's happening with it all.
