Wednesday!

Today is a wonderful Wednesday because I just dropped off most of our adoption paperwork. We have been working on it all for four months, gathering important papers, answering discussion questions, putting down what seems like every little detail of our lives... Yesterday I spent 5 hours own and off typing and making copies and putting papers in order. Mark has a little more to do and then we each have some individual interviews with the social worker and then we will be Just Waiting for the call. That call could be anywhere from 12-18 months though. But I am just so relieved to have this part (almost) over. Now, just to come up with the money to pay for the Little Sweet Thang! I look at baby girls all the time and try to imagine what she will be like.

We are home from Bible Study and now heading out to piano. Then home again to fix supper and then I might get to finally mop!

  7. Isn't it WONDERFUL to have the paperwork almost done? Yet, let me warn you...that paperwork keeps you busy and when you just start waiting with nothing adoption related stuff to do...well it can get kinda long! Oh, but what am I saying? Your kiddos will keep you busy and the time will FLY!!!!!! I forgot you had a James to make that clock tick faster! ;) I LOVE HIM! AND I LOVE YOUR BLOG! I've missed you so!
