Wait For Mira Lin

This blog was created to help keep me sane while I await the adoption of my daughter, Mira Lin. I also hope family and friends will come check the progress of our family!

Velcro Baby?

We met with Michele, our wonderful social worker today to apply for our visas, sign more papers, and basically get last minute information before we travel. Michele also told us some things to expect when we get over there. She said Mira would more than likely attach herself to one of us from the start. She said she would be like a velcro baby - sticking herself to James or me. She keeps warning me that Mira may be afraid of my blond hair because she probably has never seen someone with blond hair. Have no fear! I have a hair appointment on Friday and everyone may see me with dark hair for the first time since I was 18. My baby is going to velcro herself to me, you will see! If that doesn't work, I will put double-sided duct tape all over me and watch her stick! She said we might get travel approval next week. Once we get travel approval, she calls and makes an appointment with the embassy in China. From there, we will get specific dates and we will make travel arrangements. I feel like we get a little bit closer every day...

    I have seen you brown, blonde, and
    red. Trust me - Blonde is better.

    I've always wondered what your "real" haircolor is! You're like me, you've colored your hair for so long there is no way to tell. You better watch out because Mira might attach herself to her daddy because their hairlines are so much alike. :)
