pins and needles

I am on pins and needles today. Got little sleep. Can't wait to get our call.
The champagne is chilled! Oh please let it be today.......

anticipation

We can never know about the days to come
But we think about them anyway, yay
And I wonder if I'm really with you now
Or just chasin' after some finer day

Anticipation, anticipation
Is makin' me late
Is keepin' me waitin'

- Carly Simon


She says it best. This feeling is driving me insane.
I hope I am out of my misery tomorrow...

Bennett starting to bike

some numbers

4 years, 8 months, 18 days between the last two posts
4 years, 9 months, 6 days since our LID in China
(LID is "log in date" and is the measure of when you will get a referral)
0 the number of years to go, we are hoping it is a matter of months
1 son born in December 2008
3 houses lived in since we started this process of adoption
$123,456.78 dollars we have spent so far..... OK.... just kidding, but it feels like it!
$.10 the cost of the tea bag I am sipping on while writing this
3 the number of cell phones I've gone through since 6/18/06
0 divorces, Howard is amazing

There are, of course, more numbers (I am told an infinite amount) but this is what popped into my head this afternoon.

Testing 1 - 2 - 3

I had a heck of a time getting acess to this blog again. I'm in, and ready to get this started again. This is a test.

Thanks to all my friends at China Adopt Talk who got me back in the saddle with the blog.
