Wow...we are in the home stretch. I am completely overcome by anxiety and anticipation. Not so much the adoption, but the logistics to finally getting to hold my son. It is the strangest thing to know that in less than a week you'll be a Mom, but utterly wonderful at the same time. We are nervous about the travel and everything else that comes with adoption, but all that is overshadowed by our excitement to meet our son and Birth Mother. Over the past few months we have been exchanging letters and trying our best to define ourselves through letters. This is not easily done, but its been so nice to hear from her and know that she is real.
So in the anticipation of the moment and our impending departure steadily moving closer, we have been trying our best to get everything done and ready. There seems to be so much to do that it makes me wonder if we'll get everything completed in this period of time. I can't wait, though I must cut this post short. The laundry is calling and an empty suitcase needs to be filled. Lots to do and I am convinced I am forgetting something, if only I could remember. :-/
