Just days before this we got our social report which contained these amazing photos.
April 3rd was a Friday so I was at work and completely freaked out that we wouldn't hear about our court date that day and have to fret about it all weekend. I was a total basket case. We were hoping to hear by noon that day. I was resisting the urge to contact my specialist and ask as I knew that if she knew she would call. I made it until about 11am and I broke and emailed her. She didn't know anything yet.....
I was a wreck. About an hour later the phone rang at work and I answered it. Since I am the manager the phone is usually for me and it was this time too. The one BIG exception was this time it was someone from CHSFS. It wasn't my specialist as she was out of the office so another specialist called to tell me the FABULOUS news. I couldn't contain the tears. I was over the moon excited and immediately called oh let's see everyone.
I wanted to shout it from the rooftops. I AM A MOM!!!!! Sometimes I still pinch myself to make sure this is all real. Life is good.

Happy Mom Day Cathy!! I have enjoyed being able to watch (read about..he he) you embrace and love parenthood...it is a pleasure.
So wonderful !!!!!! Arent we just so lucky. I cant believe our 1 year is coming up in July.
I remember that feeling of when you first hear that you passed court...it's like a wave of anxiety rushes out and the gratitude overflows your body. So amazing! It is THE moment that she was no longer an orphan and you were officially her MOM!
This is a good, good post. :)
I have been reading for just about a year. I "met" you right after you passed court. I remember thinking that those photos of Kiya were just about the cutest thing ever...
