Is that even possible? Adoption symptoms? I am usually a pretty strong person when it comes to emotional situations. But since we started the adoption process, I have seriously been on an emotional roller coaster. I have never cried so much (all kinds of tears: joy, excitement, stress, anticipation...) in my life. I have been feeling so many emotions these past few months and sometimes all at the same time.
Rob will be training in Houston for his new job. He will be gone for three weeks :(.

This was part of our conversation today:
Rob: "I think I will look for an Ethiopian restaurant (San Antonio does not have any) and check it out."
Me: "What?! Why would you do that to me?" (puppy face)
Rob: "Do what babe?" (concerned)
Me: "Eat Ethiopian food for the first time without me." (sob, sob, cry)
And that was it. My breakdown. I seriously cried like a baby. No wait, I was a complete sobbing mess. It felt like it was the worst thing that anyone had ever told me. I now realize it was silly of me and Rob did not mean any harm. So my question for the day is: Is there such a thing as adoption symptoms?

| NOT an Ethiopian restaurant :( |
Now a days there's a disease and symptoms for everything so I'll call it preadoption ethiopian distress.... There you go!! Prescription a good comedy movie, relaxing massage, pedicure, mini shopping spree, and I'll add a yummy chocolate cake....and a margarita won't hurt wink wink....plus lots of prayer after lots of crying <;0)
ReplyDeleteAwesome song by Matthew West that encourages you in rough times these are the lyrics :)
ReplyDeleteYou must
You must think I'm strong
To give me what I'm going through
Well, forgive me
Forgive me if I'm wrong
But this looks like more than I can do
On my own
I know I'm not strong enough to be
everything that I'm supposed to be
I give up
I'm not stong enough
Hands of mercy won't you cover me
Lord right now I'm asking you to be
Strong enough
Strong enough
For the both of us
Well, maybe
Maybe that's the point
To reach the point of giving up
Cause when I'm finally
Finally at rock bottom
Well, that's when I start looking up
And reaching out
I know I'm not strong enough to be
Everything that I'm supposed to be
I give up
I'm not stong enough
Hands of mercy won't you cover me
Lord right now I'm asking you to be
Strong enough
Strong enough
Cause I'm broken
Down to nothing
But I'm still holding on to the one thing
You are God
and you are strong
When I am weak
I can do all things
Through Christ who gives me strength
And I don't have to be
Strong enough
