Everyone has the Internet!

God grant me the serenity

to accept the things I cannot change;

courage to change the things I can;

and wisdom to know the difference.

 
 
The first line of the Serenity Prayer has been in my mind a lot the last few weeks. For those of you who know me, you are well aware of how much of a control-freak I am. I like to organize and manipulate all the details of my life. I have a system for things and a place for everything. I like structure, I like plans and I like knowing when to expect things. When something does not go my way or when something I don't like isn't controllable by me, it sets me off. I go down this downward spiral. It becomes all I can think about, it snowballs in my head and eventually consumes me. It takes every last ounce of energy for me to let it go and calm down.  
 
We have not had an update on Daniel in almost 5 months. When I say it's killing me not knowing anything, believe me, it's KILLING me. I do not understand why someone in Korean cannot just open up an email program and shoot my US based agency a quick 4 sentence paragraph telling us how our kid is and then attaching a photo. I simply cannot comprehend how someone is too busy not to send an update once in 5 months. How hard is it to write an email? How hard is it to attach a photo? Come on, it's the year 2011-everyone has the Internet!
