I am in the waiting process for a match. I have 2 bio boys which keep me busy...our process took us 6 months to complete but we took our time, but the process went smoothly and easy. Right now for you! Take this time to get EVERYTHING in order, your health-get every dentist and Dr's appointment out of the way, your relationships-take time to spend with everyone you love-build a solid support network and nourish the people currently in your life-maybe take a vacation and a break with someone you love...organize your home-take every corner, every space and re-do it, find a space for the child in your current home and have it ready, childproof if you haven't and childproof more if you already did, paint if you need too...get rid of major clutter, clean everything and make your home feel fresh and dust-free. Take time to exercise and take care of you..eat better, get on a great schedule, get some new clothes, a new haircut. Take time to read, educate yourself on adoption. If you have a faith, get involved more in your church. Right a journal of your experiences if you want...to give to your child when they are older about the time you waited for them. Most of all, have fun. A Happy, healthy, relaxed, taken care of parent equals the same for this new child..if everything is taken care of so will your new child, cause not only will you be ready but you will be prepared! Good Luck and enjoy the process!
