I feel anticipation every day when I open the mailbox, and while I've got a great coupon or two, a free pair of underware at victoria's secret, and my sping mail order chicken catalog, no magical approval letter to bring our son or daughter home.  I had the notary come again last night to do our W2s and a few other extra copies of papers so I can hopefully drive them home next week to harrisburg for approval, then ship 'em to DC while we wait. 
Tonight is a bummer since we sent our little girl to grandma and grandpa's for 2 nights since I have a conference to go to tomorrow, and I loathe the thought of any extra daycare days since she despises it so much.  This is only the second time we've spent a night away from her. It's funny, peopel think it's good for  a new mom to "have time to herself" or "get away" or "have a break" from the kids. Maybe this will be true someday, but even now the thought of being away from her is like saying "oh, you must need a break from your legs, you walk so much" or, boy, you're eyes are tired from working so hard, you should just go blind for a few days to give them a rest"  I feel like a vital organ is missing. Sigh, I'd rather miss her than send her to day care.  we're thinking about re-hiring a new babysitter, since she's done so well with them in the past. 
Plus, we have to start grooming the new nanny for #2!   Soon I pray!

I would love to hear more about your journey to adopt from Rwanda. Can you email me? I'm trying to find out if it is possible to adopt independently?
