As I got to school this morning, I opened up my purse. Inside, was a heart shaped brownie with a note attached. It read, "I love you, mom. Love, Cecilia" I love my girls!

Tina,
Wanna hear something crazy? Once we decided on adoption, I said I was completely done with keeping track of the monthly cycle. And I really did. I was so done with it all. Now since I don't keep track whatsoever, I never know when my friend may be coming for a visit. So, at least every month or every other month, I think to myself "I bet I'm pregnant". And I'm not sad or disappointed when my friend comes, I'm just amazed that I still even think that. I guess "it" never completely goes away. But I now feel so much more trusting of God's plan -- whatever that may be.
I have to tell you I often did the same thing for awhile. Then I completely quit thinking about it at all. Then the most unexpected thing happened, I suddenly was pregnant. God definately works in mysterious ways. It makes life so much more fun and unpredictable.

How cool! I wish this had been around when we were "expecting" 6 years ago.

I second Elizabeth. We have been members of this forum for about 5 years now and it's amazing how much I still learn on a daily basis.

Please continue to read and post. We can all learn from each other. It's great to have some birthgrandparents on board.

Managing Adoption Expenses
in Looking to Adopt

I also will not tell Cecilia about the adoption fees unless of couse, she asks about it. I have to say this. Logan was in NICU for two weeks after her premature birth and we really racked up the medical bills (two years later, I'm still paying on them and probably will be for years to come). I don't remember the total amount of medical compared to adoption fees, but I do know they are similiar. Whatever the cost, I have two beautiful, intelligent girls!!!!
