one month ago already.....

I can't believe it has been a month since we got our referral...when I look at her pictures about every 5 minutes I feel as though she has been with us forever. Kinda strange since we have not met yet. but there is a connection.
Keith and I have been busy with his family coming to visit, and mine is next. It will be nice to stay so busy. But in the back of our minds we are wondering when we will be united with our sweet daughter.
It has been such a pleasure to share such great news about our daughter to everyone. Especially all my clients I see every couple months. But you know the routine, after you get the referral the next question everyone ask is when are you leaving?Why can't you go get her? BlahBlahBlah
So we are telling everyone December, that way we hope everyone will be really surprised when it happens earlier........Fingers crossed......
that's it for now....until the next call comes in about our court date...I will share the excitement with you...


And a big shout out to all my buddies still waiting.....Sending all my good thoughts your way sisters.....

I cannot believe it has been a month already! See, once you see that sweet face, time goes by a little faster. We got our court date about 1 month after referral. And, it comes in an e-mail by the way. At least ours did. So, keep refreshing that email page!
