Mike and I rang in the New Year rather quietly. We got up early on New Year's Eve and headed for home. After 9 hours of driving, we safely made it. It is always a tough day for me. Sad to leave my parents--happy to be in our home. As the last of 2010 evaporated, I couldn't help to think what a strange journey that we are on. It is at once exhilerating and terrifying. So many unknowns. Will the child be healthy? Happy? Bond with us? Love us? There really is a leap of faith on both sides of the equation.
If there is one thing that I have learned in life, you can only control what you can control. So, with a little faith, we take one step at a time. Today, we went to immigration for our final fingerprints. It went very smoothly and we were in and out in less than a half our. It was nice to hear, good luck with your adoption as each of us finished up the fingerprinting process.
