Celebrating 7 Month LIDiversary!!

Wow! That was a fast month! If they all fly by like this past one did Hannah will be here before I know it! Yeah!!! That's the funny thing about time...it's always the same yet often seems to move slower or faster depending on what's happening in our lives. Weird!

This month I decided to start a new LIDiversary tradition. Each month I'm going to purchase myself flowers on the 23rd to celebrate another month of waiting for Hannah is behind me. They don't have to be fancy or extravegant, just a wonderful, bright reminder of the celebration that occurs the 23rd of each month.

Yesterday I purchased a small bunch of hot pink carnations. I have a picture of them in all their wonderful glory but sadly with my home Internet still on the fritz, I can't post a picture right now. Talked with the phone company today and it seems a solution to my problem is still more than a week away!! Ugh....don't they know it's baby week in the adoption world? Where are their priorities??? (Sorry. Minor rant on a happy occasion.)

So, to all my March 23 LID buddies...Happy LIDiversary! 7 months down! We're getting there one day at a time!

  2. Happy 7 Months!!!

    I literally was just thinking about 10 minutes ago that this month seems to be going by much faster than the last one did!! That is soooo great!!

    I love your flowers idea!! Wish I lived somewhere where you can find good flowers for less than an arm and a leg!! I'd treat myself too!

    Take care and have a great LID-iversary!!!

    I have to say this one didn't seem quite as long to me either. Hope it stays that way until our kiddos are home :0)
