Almost 21 months

Our baby girl is almost 21 months! We received a narrative on her that was dated 3/5. It's just more confirmation that we were supposed to be in the first batch but got bumped. While it's sad to think that we could have/should have been home by now, I just try to focus on the fact that we will all be united soon, and that's what is important. In her narrative is says that Sarah:

Walks and runs, climbs up furniture
Waves bye bye, points to what she wants
Turns on and off the TV
Says lots of words (mom, dad, this, that, no, brother, food, carry me on your back)
Sleeps through the night, likes lots of food
bows (still my favorite)
loves her foster brother and greets him at the door when he comes home.
feeds family members if the say "ahh" and open their mouth.
likes the book we sent her with my voice.
throw temper tantrums when she doesn't get her way (awesome!)

While we are always thrilled to receive a report, this one made me sad. I imagined her greeting her foster brother at the door and giving him a big hug. Sitting around the dinner table feeding her omma and appa food as they all laugh. For Sarah, that is all about to end and she will be placed in the hands of strangers. These strangers will love and cherish her forever, but I look at her picture and feel guilt that we are about to ruin her life and cause great sorrow in the life of her foster family, who has known her for so long....
