Yesterday we attended our second and last all day Adoption Training Class! We are excited to have this part of our journey under our belts. The best thing about the classes was hearing the experiences of other families who had adopted children. We got some great information and made friends that will share in our experience. I also learned from one mother that when her baby came home at 8.5 months, he ate Jook (korean rice porridge). I have been looking online to figure out how to make this, since the babies there don't eat baby food like we have in America. I found several recipes. Now I just need a rice cooker! I have so much to learn! Last night we celebrated my sister's 40th birthday with her and had a great time and today is my brother's birthday. Happy Birthday Katie and Matt! I also got an early birthday present from my sister this morning and she gave me all gifts for mothers! These were my first new mommy gifts. One of them was a magnet frame for the fridge so when we get our referral picture we can post it there, but of course there will be pics in each room as soon as we get them. Today we are 2 months, 12 days into our wait...............Tick Tock, Tick Tock
