I love the idea that it is the "entitlement" part of this process. Today... I had a long talk with my father about my mom coming with sewing machine in hand to do "her idea of my nursery". (A long on going frustrating process I am dealing with my own mom) and realized from a long talk with my husband, that doing our nursery is the one thing we have control over in this process of adoption. With some much waiting, and no control of when anything will happen, I realized that I get upset when a friend or my family begins telling me what I should do or not do surrounding getting ready and designing our nursey. So... this afternoon, my husband and I had fun putting the most adorable storybook stickers on a lamp we just painted a week ago. My nursey is surround children' literature and nursery rhymes, we laughed, and talked, and problemed solved with one inch stickers. But... what fun we had. These will be the memories we can share with a child as they grow up.
