I've had a lot of people tell me later that this is all going to happen faster than I think. They are rejoicing with our small achievements and the baby steps which lead us closer to our referral. It's all becoming a bit more real with each passing day and anticipation builds.
A knock on the door late last week revealed a friend/co-worker/neighbor standing there with a bouquet of tulips..."in anticipation of our daughter".
A 3 year old playdate (you know, the paper-mache, good-Mama one) made the boys and I, a paper box. In the box were several paper butterflies...each one with our name. And, on her own accord she had asked her Mummy to write "Baby Keizer" on one.
I started a sweater last week...and finished this afternoon. My first ever. There was a sweet knitted vest late last year but not a full sweater.
Anticipation is building.
It rocks.

What thoughtful gestures from others who share your growing excitment! And the sweater is adorable. I attempted a baby cardigan a while ago, but your pattern is much cuter, and, ah, your sleeves are not huge balloons - so nice work!
I've worked that same pattern! Love it.
wow, great job on the sweater!! I am very impressed (-:
It is just so nice when friends and family are so excited for us and 'get' how significant this journey is to us.

Gorgeous sweater! Good for you.
