Just ride the ride! Good News!

"Just heard that the documents we were waiting on have been completed and submitted to the court. The court has what it needs to move forward." AHHHHHHH

Can I say what and hello and OH YEAH! Okay just ride the ride with me because this is on a crazy upswing! I feel like I am back on the Colossus at magic mountain... that thing is wild and scares me so much. I screamed the whole time! Emotion wise... email from agency caused shaking, pacing, jumping emphatically, and all sorts of jumbled happiness. I had hunkered down for a long haul. I even got a compliment of handling this with "grace"! Ha.. me? Grace? I didn't know those two words went in the same sentence... I've always wanted them to, but never thought they would be aimed at me. I thought about not sharing but how torturous for you & for me sitting on happiness. We all need more happiness. Heaven forbid, but if bad news comes again... we'll get through it and good news... I'm counting on you! I finally feel good and excited... nothing else in mother's intuition is saying something is wrong. Full speed ahead, arms up & enjoy the ride! WOOOOO

OOOH, I made the TOP 3! Actually Top 2, unless someone else is posting a comment RIGHT NOW! Yippee! Praise the Lord. What a relief!!!! I was so sad for you. .. now I can be super happy!!! You're right, take it one step at a time. And YES, you have handled it with such grace. And I promise, once you have Milana in your arms, the painful part of this journey will melt away! This is such blessed news.

WOO HOOOOO!!! You deserve great news hon! I am so glad that this is one less thing to worry about. I know that it has been a bumpy ride but it should be much better from here on out. So help me I could hear little people on planes going over your house saying they saw some chick doing a jig on her front lawn...lol.
Was that you????
I have to say, good going to the agency. Way to come through for our Sara. So, now just hang in there, no more icky ewy, feelings!!!! And I can't believe that you didn't think grace and Sara should be used in the same sentence.. shame on you!!! You have handled this wonderfully. It is a hard dealy to ask anyone to go through. Heck as your friend I don't like having to watch it. Anyways, celebrate tonight and keep dancing. I love you and am so glad that the next good news was yours!

Well, HALLELUJAH!!! Here comes that roller coaster... and look at you, growing and seeing your name next to grace :) I just don't see how there is any way NOT to grow when you're adopting a child. And let me tell you, I do HATE roller coasters, but I'm sitting there right next to you in the front car!!

OMG! This is so wonderful!!! I can't even think of what else to say because I'm so excited for you!
Goose bumps, I have goose bumps and tears all at once. Congratulations Sara.

Sarah said...

OH Thank god!!!!! I am so happy this morning when I read your blog. It is so hard to be at the entrance to the end of the tunnel and seeing the light, but not allowed to go in! Your getting there. Now hang tight, and we will all pray things go smooth from here on out! Let me know if you get any more snags with your situation and we will compare notes!

Take care!

I woke up this morning trying to find the right words to comment on your post from yesterday - what a great suprise to see this instead! Oh, I hope the rest of this flies right by for you.
Yahoooooo!!

HOLY WOW!! Yes!! What an amazing thing to read today!! Smiling so big here....and yep, I think there is a rather large dose of "grace" in there....grace can still include foot stomping and fists pumpin in the air from time to time....its the outlook when its all done that counts! Yup.... :)

Seriously...so elated for you!! You deserve this so much!! Let's get that little cutie home!!

OH, and "please exit the ride slowly and carefully"....giggle...the roller coaster analogy is soooo fitting!
HUGS!
