I spent my waiting having quality time with my dh. I took in every moment I could. I didn't want to look back after having children and say I didn't remember what life was like before them. My dh and I would drive aimlessly (gas was cheaper then
) and talked. We went to Disneyland together too.
I prayed, cried, wondering if God was on a coffee break and had forgotton us..
My faith grew because I finally grasped what giving over trust and control to God was.
When emotionally I could, I would take seminar classes and read books on kids, development, adoption etc.. I also got involved in a support group that I now help head up to this day.
