Congratulations Shy.

I am still waiting on a date. We had hoped to finalize last year (2008), but due to some health problems with the little one we are now hoping to finalize before the end of this year.

it is a nice feeling when you get to the point that you realize soon he will just be yours, isn't it? last week, A's public health nurse called bc i hadn't turned in his latest physical paperwork. i told her i didn't have to, he was MINE now. lol. she laughed.... and i sighed that i no longer had to report to anyone every time he sneezed.

congratulations!
