I just have to share this moment.....
Hubby and I are "older" adoptive parents waiting for our daughter from China. DH is 50 and I am 52....and the wait continues to increase. We started the process in June of 2006 and have been officially waiting for 16 months and it looks like we will still be waiting this time next year. So......it is really depressing and we just keep hanging on, knowing that we will hopefully have our daughter one day.
Will we be "old"......yes.....but we are not giving up now!
So....our Saturday morning routine is to go to McDonald's for breakfast/lunch before heading out to grocery shop. We are ordering our breakfast/lunch when it just hit me.....when we get our daughter we will probably be ordering 3 Happy Meals......one for her and one for each of us....along with our senior coffees!!!!!
Cause you know....as you get older your appetite shrinks! We laughed and are still laughing about it. But hey...if you can't laugh now who knows what life will bring later.
