Clarity from the Coming Full Moon

The full moon cycle always holds a special place in our hearts. I've known it was coming this Friday and hoping that it might bring with it additional feelings of peace and confidence as we head into this next phase of our journey. Last night, after a three and a half hour meeting with our agency, this was the view in the windshield on our long drive home:

The clouds parting and the moon beginning to shine through. This is the light along our (fast) approaching path to parenthood.

We've said it so many times to so many people, we've never heard two adoption stories that are the same. Ours will be no different. It will be unique and it has not yet been written. In our search for answers to what it might look like, we've had to remember that no one can tell us what this will be. We just have to wait and see, hear, feel, taste and smell it as it unfolds. Now, we feel better prepared to do that.
