Pardon the interruption from the tales of our European adventure….
…….tick, tock, Tick, Tock, TICK, TOCK!
Okay - Frank and I want to be parents and this is no big surprise, but the thing is that I have always known we have awhile before we actually are parents. So, I’ve kept myself busy with school and being a wife. I’ve been totally satisfied by that and, honestly, enjoyed being able to be selfish. I mean half the time I still feel like a kid and get homesick here missing my own Mom. But….. It’s so strange when you realize that your biological clock has begun ticking. I mean, we’ve been researching the adoption and planning for sometime now so, I guess, you could say it was revolving at a slow pace already. Yet, somehow this week it feels like that sucker is spinning noticeably faster. I find myself looking at nurseries online, debating names with Frank and peaking at the waiting children photolisting. Not sure what the reason is for the change and I certainly hope it slows back down, because we have a ways to go before I can even start complaining or getting impatient.
(Before you get annoyed that I’m stringing you along about the luggage, I will post the second installment very soon…. )
When you’re ready, you just are. It’s hard to wait once you’ve been bitten by the baby bug.
