This week I've had two dreams about our adoption both of which have been absolutely nutty! I don't know if it's the stress of waiting or what, because I usually don't remember my dreams.
The first one was Monday (which may have been our court date). I dreamt that AGCI, our adoption agency called us and told us we needed to go to Portland to meet with them face to face in their office. So we went all the way to Portland, only for them to tell us that our court date had been set for October 21, but they already knew that all of our documents weren't going to be ready for court, so we should plan on a November court date.
The second one was Wednesday. Let me give some background first.... When you travel to get your child, you normally get the child the morning after you arrive. The child then stays with you for the rest of the trip. So in my dream, we didn't get our child when we arrived. They made us wait until we were about to leave. Then, instead of our sweet, beautiful, healthy James, they told us we had to take a 3 year old who was trach and ventilator dependent and had some sort of genetic syndrome. Not that a child like that isn't worthy of a home, but it's not what we agreed to, or what we are approved by the US government to bring home. So we had to come home empty-handed. I just kept wondering where my James was and no one would tell me.
Thankfully, I know these are dreams and not reality. I honestly have gained (again) a real peace about the wait and have faith that James will be home in God's time.

I am so pleased you have been blessed with some peace. This wait has got to be difficult, but God is there holding you up through it.
I tagged you. Go to my blog. Uhh, yeah, having a medical background can really kill you on the dreams:)
