Our baby girl is coming home. Final ruling was issued today. She is legally ours. We are officially a family of 5. We have a daughter. Our Paige is finally ours. Yes, we are sososososos excited we can hardly believe it.

Ok so this is how my day went today. I was getting more frustrated by the hour. As there was no email from my agency. I was working on a photobook, and had just finished talking to both of my girlfriends (no not at the same time). Of course I was whining about how I couldn't stand another moment of this loooooooong wait. I was just about to sign off of the computer where I was working on my photobook. It was 3:40 and my little guy had to get dressed for his baseball game that we were leaving for shortly. I dedicided to check my email one last time before I turned off the computer. It was there.. the email I was waiting for : subject- GOOD News.
I screamed, cried, danced, and then called my husband who was already on his way home for the baseball game. I cried, screamed, danced some more. Hung up with him and then called everyone. Hubby called our travel agent. We had to leave at 4:30 to get to the game.They want us to pickup Paige on Aug. 7th but we can not find a flight out until the 11th. I hope they can change the AIT appointment. We really want to use our frequent flier miles otherwise it will cost us a small fortune. So what is 5 more days, when we waited 3 years for this moment.... aggghhhh.

It really has happened. We have a daughter. This rates up there with one of the best days in our lives.

Okay, so I just had to leave a second comment -- after my first posted, the word verification changed on the page, and guess what it it now reads?

"farybed"

How appropriate is that?? :-)
