Today my little one celebrates her 2nd birthday. I wish I was with her. I had hoped when we were matched with her at the end of August that we would be together by now. I have been hoping that we would receive our Travel Approval today. What a way to celebrate this day, but it did not happen. It has been a sad day. Many have said to me that I will be in China soon and we can celebrate it with her then. Yes, this is true. We are so close to traveling now. I can look forward to that day, but this mama is just so tired of waiting. I am throwing a party right now. It is a big pity party. Honestly, I am in a very selfish and self centered mood.
This is the last birthday you will celebrate without your forever family, Renee! We will be there very soon!
Happy birthday, beautiful Renee! More presents than you can imagine await you!

It does stink that you have to be away from each other on this birthday )= Never fun to feel another milestone slip away.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it's ok to have a little pity party time, especially in this process, which I know you are all too familiar with.
Just hang on though-
"I can see a light, that is coming, for a heart that holds on..."
Happy Birthday Renee!!!!!
