Vogi - I LOVE you for starting this thread!
Background if you don't know: I placed my DD that was born on Thanksgiving in 2006. Her Mom is a single Mom that asked me to be in an open adoption. Oh, and I used Safe Haven. I guess that's pretty important too. We've had two visits in the past nearly two years and email each other now and then, but with no set schedule for the visits or the updates. Yep, I think that's about it
Today, my OA is rockin awesome. I got an email from Cupcake's Mom yesterday. She last emailed me July 17th saying she had to check her calendar and get back to me. Well a month later I was feeling a little hopeless and was ready to crawl under a rock and hide from my OA for a while. But then I got my email and better yet, I got my visit!
I think we're looking at Sept. 27th and I could not be more thrilled! (It hasn't set in yet so the nerves and emotions haven't kicked up).
I'm SO excited to talk about what happens in my OA here - sometimes good, sometimes bad, sometimes ugly, but for me? Always worth it for my Cupcake.
