Some of the moms and teachers at my bio son's school put together a little baby shower when we brought Little A home. They had known that we had been waiting for a placement for quite some time so everyone was thrilled when it finally happened.

I didn't want to jinx it by having a real baby shower, so they tricked me by inviting me over to scrapbook. It was the sweetest thing!

My family wanted to do an organized baby shower, but again I didn't want to jinx it! So I wouldn't let them. I kept telling everyone that once her adoption was final, we would have something to honor that.

Well, nearly 2 years later, we'll finally get the chance to celebrate our newest member of our family! We have NO idea what we'll do since now it is close to the holidays and there is something going on almost every weekend through New Year's Day. We'll figure something out soon, I hope!
