Well, I think I am out of the habit of posting everyday. This used to be such a therapeutic way for me to deal with all of the feelings that we were having along our journey, but I feel like as things are falling into place that it almost seems the *need* to post has decreased. I still would like to keep up with posting often because I think it is a good way to hash out feelings and writing has always been therapeutic for me! :)
We are waiting for the kids' lawyer to give their final approval and then their case worker will be able to purchase their tickets :) We can't wait! It is all so exciting.
We have been talking the last few days about how nervous we feel. I wonder if most people feel this way as they get closer to their adoption date or their due date... We are thinking about how flexible and free our lives are now and how much that is all going to change very soon! Smile My mom asked me if I was getting cold feet! I don't think it is cold feet, but more I just pray that we do a good job and that we are great parents for these little kiddos! I can imagine that most people probably feel this way once they have a date or an idea of when they get to bring the little one home. I imagine this is even more the case with adoption because with babies it seems the parent(s) have more time to grow into the role... The baby sleeps a lot and isn't very active for the first few months...This gives them time to adjust and be ready for the coming stages. When adopting an older child it will be like jumping into the game in the middle. Smile. But we just feel so strongly that the Lord has led us here and that these kiddos need and deserve a home- and we have that to offer! We are so excited... Nervous... and excited :)
