Hi Sonnet
I am so glad i am not the only not wanting to eat person. I can eat
breakfast and light lunch, but dinner is a real struggle, and its not
even as though wieght is melting off! I will try more viggorous
exercise.
We ahve booked our adoption medical for next week, and our referrences
have been contacted so we think we are 2/3 of the way through our
pre-home study checks. This means that hopefully we will have had our
case out to panel by September and approved and Homw Office approved by
November and then it is just a case of waiting to be matched in China to
our baby. We may even have her hme with us by this time next year, it
is so strange speaking bout her as she will not even have been borne
yet!
Good luck to you and your dh, and work will come along when you least
expect it.
Take great care and please keep in toach, it is so exciting.
love
