I have a confession...

The closer we get to done, the more annoyed I get with having to get all this done! Don't those people know Dashlyn is ours and needs to be here, and not sitting in a crib waiting while we run around having things notarized?! Arghhhhh!

Ok, I feel better now. The truth is, we're getting closer. The homestudy is really nearly done. Hubby has to finish the autobiograpy portion (which may kill him, if you choose to believe such nonsense!) and I need to finish the financial portion. Oh, and we have to finish our online adoption classes. Then I can focus on finishing up our dossier. The dr portion I think will be the hardest. He does not seem to want to hear how to fill out that darn form. I have a few extras printed in ase we have to do it more than once (we've already gone through more than one form for Al).

It was starting to get less real for me last week. After re-focusing my efforts, all I want is to hold my baby. Sometimes my arms ache for her. My heart always does. A couple of months ago, adoption wasn't even on the table for us. A couple of months ago, I just knew our family was complete. A couple of months minus a few days ago, God thunked me on the head and here we are! When I was pregnant, I was content to wait every minute of those 9 mos until I met my baby. Not that I didn't want them, I just knew they were okay and I wouldn't get any sleep after they were born;). But this little one is here, living, existing, breathing in this world. And I can't wait!
