2-14-07 Valentine's Day - allowed myself for the first time ever to think of me as a mom and actually bought a Valentine's card that spoke to me, my sign, that I needed to move forward on my journey to adopt. This was the first thing that I have ever purchased in true anticipation of being a parent. A big day! Very emotional!
3-3-07 My 31st Birthday - Sent out my application to my adoption agency.
3-23-07 - Received acceptance letter from my Agency.
The week of March 26th I freaked out a bit before sending in my contract to my agency. :)
4-6-07 Good Friday - Sent out my Contract to my agency with my first big check.
4-11-07 - Sent out my Home Study application.
4-12-07 - Sent out my I600-A "Application to adopt an Orphan."
(and in between, filled out a bazillion forms, got fingerprinted 3 times, visited my doctor, had two home study visits, sold my pontoon and a leather living room set to raise some cashola, ordered 3 additional certified birth certificates, received 3 letters of reference from great friends, sent out my renewal for my passport, got court documents from the state of NE from my stupid "Minor In Possession" that I so stupidly got when I was 18 (still haunting me), had my "Guardianship" letter signed and notarized ..... twice :) ..... and so on.)

Cousins (Izaak wants to name my daughter (his cousin) Isabella, Sant (for 'Santa') or Hershey (his friend's dog's name.) Hmmmm I told him that if we name her 'Hershey,' that would mean that we get to give her a lot of kisses.
