Confession Monday

I confess that ...

... I don't know what to post about today.  I can't come up with anything.  I am sure I have many things to "confess" as I'm not perfect, but I just can't think of things to type here.

... hmm ... I'm packing.

... I'm looking forward to Easter weekend.

... I'm already enjoying Easter candy.

... I loved watching the new movie "Rio" yesterday.  I really enjoyed being able to confirm with Mikiyas that he figured out the boy at the end of the movie was adopted by the couple.  Another inter-racial adoption to celebrate!

... I'm looking forward to Easter Egg Hunts.

... I still hesitate a little with accepting Mihret as my daughter.  It's not legal.  I was much further along in the accepting stage when Mikiyas' referral came.  From the moment I received the referral I accepted and KNEW he was my son.  With Mihret, I'm a little more hesitant.  I've seen a lot more adoptions fall through over the past few years.  People have lost referrals due to health, biological family coming forward etc.  I kind of feel like I did during two of my pregnancies following a miscarriage.  I'm a little nervous to attach in case it goes awry.  I want her to be my daughter.  Trust me, I do.  I just feel hesitant to tattoo it until it's legal.  :)

... Yes, it'll be tattooed.

I am looking forward to the Easter egg hunt too. It will be some of my childrens` first egg hunt. To see the excitement in their eyes is priceless.
