The Wait

Seems like a million years ago since we went to the informational meeting at Pauquette. Since then, we have pulled the house together a bit, completed our home study interviews and (most of) the paperwork, and sent out our portfolios. Now it's just "wait and see."
I have finally allowed myself to buy some stuff, baby supply stuff. Was afraid to for the longest time because I didnt want to jinx it. (spelling?) Now we have a cool 3-wheeler stroller for hitting the trails on the back 40....a car seat, a bouncy chair, bottles, monitor, and loaner items from bro-and-sis-n-law. We've decided to go with cloth diapers, for a few reasons, the environment, health issues, and of course, money. (Thanks Walker, I'll think about you every time I wash a shitty diaper.) I've interviewed a couple day-care providers, and am meeting with a pediatrician this week. All we need now is a baby. It's weird to think somewhere out there is a woman, or girl, struggling with a decision, and maybe choosing us. Please choose us.
