ADOPTING A CHILD WON'T CHANGE THE WORLD
BUT FOR THAT CHILD THE WORLD WILL CHANGE
To give away money is an easy matter and in any man’s power. But to decide to whom to give it, and how large, and when, and for what purpose and how, is neither in any man’s power nor an easy matter…

Thoughts

It is Saturday night, our exchange student went to her prom this evening. We just got home from pizza and something just sparked me to say.. I am really excited about getting this boy home. I was sad awhile back to think that when we finally got a referral and got the child home.. it would be my last time of being a mom. But tonight, while eating pizza and laughing with Chase, Ali and Mallory I thought it will be so great to have all four kids together, living our lives and being a family... and some day not to far down the road watch them all grow and go off to their proms. And them maybe Jay and I will be able to take some time just to ourselves and travel and relax!.. that is a concept we have never gotten to do!!
But I am really excited for our papers to leave our agency this week and head over to Taiwan!
I am also waiting for word to see if our gift have gotten to our boy. Of course daddy sent a Florida Gator animal and outfit... plus a few toys and lots of clothes.
I think all this waiting is the hardest part!!
