This weekend we celebrated my oldest daughter’s birthday. We rented a hotel room and the party room there. She had a total of 11 girls there swimming and celebrating with her. It was a blast. We had pizza, bread sticks, chicken kickers, juice, pop, and an ice cream cake from DQ. Yummy! Two of the girls stayed overnight at the hotel with us too. Her friends are all such nice girls and everyone got along great.
Today we brought the girls home, visited my grandma, went out to lunch, and then saw the new movie Alvin and the Chipmunks. That was very cute. If not for the boy behind me kicking my seat and the 2 women next to us that smelled of cow manure and old urine soaked pants, it would have been great. I don’t know what that deal was…but it was HORRIBLE. I smelled them before they even got close to us, and then of course they took the two seats right next to us. I looked for a new seat for us about half way through the movie when I could no longer stand it, but it was opening weekend and the theater was packed. So we stayed. Good thing we were not eating…I would have lost it.
I find myself thinking more and more about my baby….has he been born? Will this thing even work? Will Vietnam close down before I can get him home? Am I just worrying over nothing? Will I ever lose weight? LOL.
I’m off to make some brownies…so I guess the answer to the last question is: No, not any time soon.
I have those same thoughts – I wonder if this adoption will ever happen. Sometimes it just doesn’t ever feel like it will.
I think about my son constantly! In wonder if he has been born, if his birth mom is healthy and ok, if they are cold or hungry. To be honest, it won’t feel real until I have that referral photo in my hand and a G&R date.
I imagine that moment when they finally put him in my arms and I wonder why no one ever looks misty eyed during their G&R???? I think I will be sobbing and smiling and laughing all at once.
