Just sitting here having thoughts of home. It was almost a week ago that we were having our last day of work and getting ready to take the Boys out to our Family Night dinner. Hard to believe how quick a week goes. It is so great to be able to have internet access and cell phones to keep in touch with everyone. We look forward each day to checking emails and catching up with everyone.
I was also thinking today about Kathryn's room. Well soon to be room. She will stay with us in our room for a while till her room is built. I know this is the ongoing question, where is Kathryn going to sleep in our 3 bedroom house? We have just about decided to build a room in our living room for her. This is the best option so that she can have a room outside of ours and we still have plenty of room in the house with the family room. We rarely use the living room anyhow. This is a picture of the crib set we picked out for her room. No, her room won't look exactly like that but... It is pretty in pink just like Kathryn. Her great grandparents gave us the bumber, skirt and sheets at the Bon Voyage party last weekend. Can't wait to put the crib together and get her home.
Our thoughts and love go out to everyone at home. We have felt the prayers and love sent with us the whole time we've been here. There are so many people who have been a part of making this possible that I won't even try to start naming you - if you are reading this you are one of them. Our thoughts and hearts are at home with you all while we spend this time with our new daughter. This bonding time is so important in the journey of adoption.
