This blog was started as a way for our family and close friends to follow along the ever unfolding process of
bringing home a child via international adoption! Thanks for participating in our Vietnam adventure.

"LIFE IS NOT MEASURED BY THE NUMBER OF BREATHS YOU TAKE, BUT BY THE MOMENTS THAT TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY"

October 6, 2010

ONE EGG IN THE BASKET, ONE IN THE OVEN

Well, the unplanned, unthinkable yet unbelievable has occurred. We have been given word that we are going to become parents in April 2011. That’s right – I’m going to be mommy sooner than we thought, a dream come true - literally! To make matters more interesting for my fellow blog-reading folk, here’s the kicker… the baby we are expecting is not from overseas, in fact, it is not even Vietnamese - but rather growing and kicking inside my belly!

Yup – were miraculously pregnant, go figure! Just over 3 months and counting. The man above sure works in mysterious ways and that stork of his must have been on steroids. All the same, we are delighted and excited. Wow – imagine that, biologically pregnant and paper pregnant all at the same time…bet that’s an oddity.

Do not dismay, we are still going ahead with our plan to adopt from Vietnam. This changes nothing, well, it certainly changes things, but not in our commitment to bring home our little Dragonfly. We will, however, need to delay things somewhat (obviously) and decide when and how to tell the agency. We will also need to revise our paperwork to reflect our new family circumstance.
