August, 2005

So here it is, the night before we might get our referral. We've been thinking, reading, praying, and preparing for this since we made the decision back in early April. I've been meaning to post information about our decision and the rest of the adoption process on my own personal website, but for some reason never got around to it. Like the old saying, "the cobbler's children have no shoes," my website has been almost dormant for many months now. But now we're working on the website for Miriam.

Wow, here we are on the last day of August and tomorrow we could have our referral... we could know who Mira is. I realize that most likely we will not get the referral tomorrow, but it is possible. After all this waiting, time has gone by very quickly. I'm nervous and excited. In many ways it feels like I am dreaming. None of this is real yet. Somehow I don't think it will be real until I'm holding Miriam in my arms. Come on referral! Hey, it could be here.. TOMORROW!
