February

I was reading my first blog entry the other day and it's so weird what has happened in that short amount of time. I was expecting to start the paperwork for an Ethiopian adoption this past February, well a year later we ended up with our daughter and she will be officially ours this coming February. I didn't have to travel half way around the world to find her. My heart is still in Ethiopia and I would still love to adopt from there. I would also like to hire a surrogate (using my eggs) and I would also like to adopt from our county again. So who knows what our family will look like in the future. There is no sense in planning it now. If you would have told me a year ago that our next child would not come from Ethiopia I would not have believed you. Who knows, maybe the only chance I will get to go to Ethiopia is to visit our sponsored child. I hope that's not the case, but it's crazy how you really have no say how your future will turn out. It's so exciting and such a surprise. All I know is that I am so grateful to have my amazingly sweet baby girls.

  1. I beg to differ. I think you have huge say in how your future turns out. It's not like Lou just fell into your lap. You took the initiative to do the process to become a foster parent, and you did what it took to make Lou become yours. Give yourself more credit! ;D
