Whether you're conceiving or adopting, you need to go through some sort of nesting process. Plus you totally need visual tangible things to remind yourself that this is all real! And there are so few times in life when you can look forward to something so wonderful, so let yourself be happy and giddy and savor the moments of happy anticipation! And I believe in a God who totally understands and accepts slightly frazzled prayers during times of excitement or despair, so I think he's doing a happy little holy jig up there in heaven every time he hears from you because you're planning to give a child a healthy and happy life full of love.<br /><br />But would it be wierd for ME to start buying baby stuff for Cox #3? It's tempting!<br /><br />Love,<br />KarinaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12586394699925940462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9077471860024761518.post-441661158200934772009-07-24T22:48:01.447-07:002009-07-24T22:48:01.447-07:00Thanks for adding your family to the blog list!

How crazy was that to stumble on your blog! We were at Bethel at the same time. I was a social work major. <br /><br />Anyway, I've been excited to read your posts-and figured I should let you know I'm reading. We're also in the process of adopting from Ethiopia. <br /><br />I SO appreciate your willingness to be real. Thank you. You can click on my name to find my blog and I can send you my email address.<br />Hope to hear from you!<br />Sharon BonnettBradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01817808552831713185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9077471860024761518.post-19873887773708692432009-07-24T14:37:51.594-07:002009-07-24T14:37:51.594-07:00Seriously, shopping and filling your life with thi...Seriously, shopping and filling your life with things for #3 is the only proof you have that #3 is on the way. I think there is absolutely no need to panic or feel guilty about bring many, many, many wonderful things into your home for Her (maybe him?). I had Myra's nursery set up and finished for almost 18 months before we even received her referral....18 month and no baby. But it really help me feel like there was a baby at the end of this long, never ending wait. So shop, shop, shop like the baby is coming home tomorrow. It is so much more fun that way.<br /><br />Happy, jiddy is a great way to live...so here is to many more missed flights...but not the one to ET. <br /><br />L<br />ps...I was kidding about the room.Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15294603938160394697noreply@blogger.com
