It's all how you frame it

In about three weeks or, at longest, about eight weeks I'll become a mama. Wow, it sure sounds better to be able to put it that way. I can say 'weeks' instead of 'months' or 'years'. Now that's a better way to be looking at things :0)

Yes ma'am! You will become a mama. Our little Hannah's paperwork was done 3 months before we got her referral. Your little one is probably being processed now or has already been processed! How cool is that?

Now all that is left, for a human being with what I believe is devine intervention, to take your file and match it with your daughter's. Yes....that will occur within a few weeks, even days now.

Goose bumps!

I think about you all the time - just knowing your baby girl will be showing her face to you soon has me smiling ear to ear WITH you!

I'll drink to that!!! Been following you a long time and cannot wait for your referral. My daughter just got her's in the 2/17 batch and it was surreal.. After 3 years to see that face and know a new part of life is beginning... Hurry up China I need to see other's Happiness. I have so many people I'm praying for that they see their little ones quickly...Linda

I can't remember where I found your blog, but I'm coming out of lurkdom to say Congrats! You'll be seeing your baby girl's face very soon. So happy for you!

I'm smiling just thinkin bout it!!!

Sofie said...

Yes - and if you don't see her face in 3 weeks - you will know that you are definitely next. I remember that we just missed the cut-off by a day or 2 and I was so upset. But then I started to realize that we really were next and discovered that that was a great feeling. Unfortunately I was pretty sure we would be skipped over - so that did not help - but it was nice to know we were next. Better than concentrating on missing it by a day or 2. I am really hoping for a 4 day batch this time. Seriously - that is not unreasonable at all.

Red Sand said...

The size of the grin on that smiley is sooo appropriate. Cheering you on from my little corner.

Sofie said...

Oh heck - I just realized that I needed to say 5 day batch - not 4 - sorry - I guess I can't count or add for that matter!

Kristy said...

Pipo I feel so bad that I have not been here in so long! I have been reading about "Pipo" on other blogs and have kept looking foryou, but I guess what I did when you ended your other blog is I took it off and then must have gotten distracted (imagine that), and did not re enter the new address, I am sooooo sorry!!!!

I know you are next and I can't wait to see her face and yours!!!!!
Have a great weekend, love to you.

Kristy
