Remember back in the spring of 2006 when my agency said it would be 12-18 months to complete this adoption? I do. Well... it's now 50 months later. It's really hard to believe that I still sit here waiting. But the good news is..... I'm starting to see light at the end of the tunnel. I'm still on track to get a referral in January. That's only 5 months from now. And with the holidays and year's end approaching... I think it's gonna fly by!We're having a family reunion tomorrow. I just got off the phone with my sister talking about it. I said to her "This is gonna be the last family reunion without a kid. Next year I'll be bringing Mia."
And I actually believe it this time.

Mia is gonna be soooo loved by all the T's and the rest of the family! I guess you can say much, much less than 12 months til Mia!??

(and damn if your LID isn't getting a bit over the hill, eh?)
You're in the 1 month to your LID countdown!!! I started a little Marble jar when it got that close...so I could remove marbles every month to see how close I was getting....a little visual reminder.....let those marbles FLY outta there!
That's a reunion I won't miss! Happy you're finally to the countdown!
You are getting SO close! Definitely do a countdown!
