LID 1/24/06

Logged in Date! We started this process in July 2005. It took us six months to get here, but so much was accomplished during that time. Writing biographies, 4 homestudy visits, medical physicals, FBI fingerprints, every background check ever invented, and the promise that we will love our daughter as our own.

For some people the LID probably seems like a huge accomplishment, but its left me feeling a bit empty. It just another step in this long journey. I just hope that next year at this time our daughter is home and happy.

Just visiting your site after you left a comment on mine. I am buying either 12-18 or 18-24 months sizes, since I have no idea how old she will be, or what size. I figure, she can wear them at some point. If not, someone will get a nice gift :)

As for your post, I know how you feel about LID. I think the reason so many people get so excited, is that the process is so long and sometimes overwhelming, and they are glad to reach some real milestone. Every little bit helps!

Happy LID and may your wait go quickly!
