An adoption brings so many milestones.
Days that will forever be important.
There is the day you started telling everyone about your new journey.
The day you are put on the waitlist.
You have the day you finally receive your referral.
And the day you become a forever family.
An adoption is filled with so many waits.
The waits drive you nuts, but are so necessary.
The waits forever change you.
One year ago today we were put on the waitlist.
Waiting to find out the one God chose for our family.
And now, in just a few days, we will hold Miles in our arms.
We leave in four days for Africa and I am all over the place.
I am so ready to meet him.
For our family to finally be together.
But I don't know if I am ready to bring him home.
Don't get me wrong,
I am ready for him to be home, I just don't know if I am ready to take him from his.
That is just one of the many things you have to process on this journey called adoption and just one of the many reasons I am thankful for all the waits.
