Deja Vu

Two years ago, on September 1st we were in Michigan. I was driving to the grocery and listening to a song called "Speaking With the Angels" by Cry Cry Cry. Beautiful song. I was crying. It's a song about the clean slate babies are when they're born. I was thinking about our baby and was just a big ball of emotion. Before I went to the store I stopped and checked my email and found out the referrals were coming in that day. A few hours later we got the call that Emmy was ours.


This year, we're in Michigan driving to the store and that song comes on. I flashed back to that day and told Dave about it. Then I realized that when I heard that song two years I was on the same stretch of road that we were now on. THEN I realized the date: September 1st!


Happy Referral Day Anniversary to us!

Now I'm sure that Deja Vu made you Cry, Cry, Cry. When you told me this the other day, it gave me goose bumps. Maybe it's also a good sign that the waiting is almost over. I'll say a few prayers and hope that the waiting is almost over but you know, whenever it happens it will be the "right" time. Things seem to work out that way.

Love ya,

TaTa and Ralph

PS....looks like someone is dividing the milk out to be equal parts in every glass. That's probably a sign of things to come between older sister and brother. I'm sure she'll be the Boss.....
