Today is the day. It does not feel real. I think it is because I have day dreamed about this moment for 2 1/2 years.
We did not arrive in Ahmedabad until 2:50am. By the time we arrived at the hotel, unpacked, and took a shower it was 5am.
I tried to sleep, and I think I did here and there… not sure how much, though.
We have a wake up call at 8am. But I just can’t sleep. besides that I can slightly hear the horns honking from the cars below over the hum of the AC in our room. That is a sign to me the day has started. So…it is now 7am. That 2 hours of “sleep” dragged on, because I knew we must have missed the wake up call.
I am a little nervous. What is she going to be like? What will she think of us?What is her personality? How will her transition into our family go for her? How will we communicate? Will I get to see my friends’ children too?
Then there is the business side of things…
We were given a heads up by our agent that the adoption attorney is expecting some “extra payment” because he expedited our paper work. Not sure what he is expecting exactly…well we have been given a figure, but we are NOT paying it….mainly because we don’t have it, and we also feel it is unfair. So please pray that situation goes smoothly, and that it will not cause problems in getting our daughter and her passport.
