Bringing Kennedy Home

Feelings, thoughts and other tidbits along the way to adopting our daughter from China.

Update!

I e-mailed the province today and was told that there shouldn't be problem with us seeing the picture of our daughter as soon as it arrives! Yippeeeee! Then, they will send it off to our agency. I think our agency will then let us know her age and where she lives. So we shouldn't have to wait that whole extra week for a glimpse of our daughter, which is fantastic!

I will now be carrying my cell phone in my pocket at all times. Marvin and I will both make arrangements with work to be able to go to Charlottetown (about an hour drive) as soon as we get the call.

I fully expect it will be the end of next week(Dec.1) or first of the next week(Dec.4)

Can you believe it??? And yes, I will scan in that picture for you all to see ASAP!

    Anyways enjoy your weekend and have sweet dreams about little Kennedy!! Very soon you will have a real face to put to your daughter Kennedy!!

    OMG!!! I think I was living in the same trance as you for the past few weeks, almost in denial that you were this close! It seems like it was so far away and now it is just around the corner. I am going to want ot jump in the car with you and Marvin and head to Charlottetown...how will I be patient enough to see the picture with everyone else?
    Ahhh, my sweet Caroline, it is your time bask in the warm glow of motherhood and focus your energy on that sweet feeling, the most amazing thing I have ever done is be a mother. You will be wonderful, perfect, and natural. Kennedy has the two best parents for her in the world. It is destiny. I am beyond excited for you all. I feel like ever since that night we spoke out in front of the Loyalist about adoption and went through this whole process together that we have become closer than friends that work together...it is a special bond to be sure and I love Kennedy already... she has a special place in my heart.
    Love always,
    Jen
