We drove the long way home and made it in record time thanks to old Blue. I can’t explain to you what this trip meant to us, but I feel like a whole new world suddenly opened up in front of us and suddenly we’re getting closer to our dream. But here’s the deal – we went into this adoption with not a lot of expectations – we didn’t care what race, what gender, what anything, we were just opening ourselves up to a baby. Then we sat there having a meal with five people who we fell in love with – each one of them – and we came home walking on cloud 9 and singing Bob Marley tunes the whole way in the truck.
We had the kids in the car and followed the parents to another place and when we got out, I said, “We’ll just take these three and y’all can start over again.”
I have always been so incredibly fortunate in my life, but there are moments, when I feel as if I have peeled off another layer between me and nirvana and I just stand in awe of everything around me.
THANK YOU WORLD!
