All of the copies of our portfolio are done, all "ribboned up" and are on their way to Hillsboro Oregon! I almost cried when I put them in the box and taped it all up...I don't really know why. I felt like I was sending kids off to school for the first time or something. I wanted to say "now, make me proud and show everyone who you are!" :) (no, I wouldn't say that to my children, but somehow I felt like our future was left up to these little books in some weird way.)
Even though we are still waiting on our approval, our agency is able to start showing potential birthmothers our portfolio if someone is interested in looking at it. WOW! What a crazy thought! :)
We're starting to talk about some of the fun things now...names...strollers...carseats...formula...diapers...nursery decor...:) I can't believe we're finally at a place where we can be talking about these things. :) Feels good!
