No Emigration Permit for Aiden

No EP for Aiden this year.  Just found out earlier today by email.  No more EP's issued this year.  They (South Korea) have their quota.  So now, we will miss Aiden's first Christmas, his first birthday, and it may be Feb or March of 2011 before we know if he's coming home.  I am devastated.  I can't even talk about it.

A Korean Forum mom, just found out today they made the cut, they will receive their EP for their adorable little girl.  I am truly happy for them, (P-I really am!)  but at the same time I am devastated. I know some of you are thinking, "what's a couple of more months?"  Imagine deciding you wanted something more than anything else in this world.  So you make a plan.  You start the process and follow through with all the steps that are required.  Yes, there are bumps and potholes in the road, dips, and curves, but finally  you're on your way and it feels great!

Then, imagine you figure out you are so close to reaching your goal, what you've wanted more than anything.  All those emotions you've kept on hold  for 3 1/2 years.  All of that leading up to being told Sorry to inform you.......
