The Road Less Traveled

I took the road less traveled by. And that has made all the difference. Robert Frost

Wednesday, June 06, 2007

Today is the day! The husband woke me up this morning saying "wake up mommy, lets' go make our dreams come true"!!!!!

We have decided that June is our special adoption month, we started this adoption June 2005 by sending in our application to adopt from Vietnam (licenses were not given out until January 2006, so we had to wait). Our Dossier went to Vietnam June 2006 and now here we are June 2007 and we are finally going to meet our daughter.

Today is a very wonderful day to us, the emotions I am going through today I have never felt. I am scared out of my mind because we are first time parents but, I know we will be fine and I am filled with pure joy and excitement.

I would like to thank everyone for all their kind thoughts for our family, it truly means a lot to us.

I am signing off for now from Indiana and will sign back on tomorrow from the other side of the world!

(I know I kind of jumped from one thing to the next but, my mind is all over!!!!) ;)
