So hard to believe that 18 years have gone by already. Where does the time go?? It seems like just yesterday we were coming home from the hospital with our little 6lb 2oz bundle of joy and trying to figure out "what now". I remember, we brought him home in his little car seat, sat him on the floor of the living room and then we look at each other and said "Now what do we do?".
Now 18 years later, we are once again wondering "what's next". Josh is playing football for the first time since 4th grade, he is preparing for his Senior year of High School, we are filling out college applications and soon College Financial paperwork.
Also - now that Josh is 18 and our adoption Home Study is not yet filed, we will need to do some additions to our Home Study and Josh will need to have some background checks completed. We will also need to complete a special form for the US Citizenship thing and he'll have to be fingerprinted along with Brian and me. Our adoption agency said they hated to tell us about this extra paperwork that would now be needed as they know how anxious we have been to get the Home Study completed. All in God's timing!!!
Eventually it will all get done but I think that 2012-2013 is going to be a big year of firsts for our family.
Once again - a great big Happy Birthday to two very special guys in my life. As Brian says, "He got the best birthday present - that keeps on giving - wait taking".
For His Glory,
Chris
