Not getting excited yet

So yesterday was the saddest day in the world. 9/11. Isn't it strange, that for those 24 hours, you remember ever feeling and emotion that you felt during that awful day. I decided yesterday that I wanted to make something wonderful happen...so, I called immigration. It's the Orphan office or something like that. I very nicely asked for Yowanda, the woman in charge. She actually answered the phone. In the sweetest voice I could muster I said....hi, I was wondering if you had any idea when my I71 would be ready....I gave her my name and my hubby's...she put me on hold, and I prayed. And the words I needed to hear came out of her mouth..."it's right here on my desk and it should go out this week!!!!" I actually told the woman I loved her!!!! I called my agency right away and told them the news....if all works out o'k...and I hate to say this, because I don't want to jinx...we could be DTC within two weeks!!!! That is a pivotal day in our journey. So, I'll write no more about this until it actually happens...but keep the good thoughts coming our way. Lia Rose, just another step closer to you baby girl!!!
