Mike and I have been patiently waiting for our child's legals from Korea. I've heard that it can take up to a month to receive. Which leads to the dilemma, we can't start the I600 U.S. process until we receive this information.
So as the time goes bye, we've been preparing in other ways. Last weekend, we once again worked on his room. I'm really loving the color selection. Bedding will be the next issue. To crib or not to crib--that is the question. Korean families have a little bit of a different ritual with the sleep situation. The child sleeps on a mat on the floor in the parent's bedroom. So yeah, we need to figure out the best method to get our son sleeping in his room, preferably on his own, and in some type of bed or crib. On our agencies forum site, there have a couple of families working through this transition. We will be battling two major issues: time zone change and separation nightmares. I've tried to prepare dada for this lack of sleep, but something is telling me that it really hasn't sunk in. Time will tell. Hopefully, our son will be a good sleeper.
We celebrated Valentine's Day last night. Mike brought home beautiful red and white roses and we stopped off at our favorite little local chocolate store. Umm. On Sunday, we ran down some chocolate to Betty, who is an amazing women even at 90. Still sharp as a tack. Crazy to think that next year at this time, little guy will be home and helping us celebrate.
