Reactions

The reactions I love the most to the news that we are adopting are the ones that are just as excited for us had we told them we were pregnant.

We told Brandon's cousin Erin the other night and she ran to the press box during the middle of half time and told her husband who is a high school football coach. She interrupted his game to tell him. He was just as excited and wanted to know when we were going to pick the baby up. She had to explain to him that it was a long process and that we were just getting started. He couldn't understand why we just couldn't go pick the baby up.

The other sweet reaction has been Brandon's grandmother Mama Ruth. When we told her that we needed the rocky horse that Brandon's grandfather made for him years ago because we were adopting a baby she welled up with pride and became so excited for us.

We are so excited about this process and love seeing people who are willing to celebrate with us as well.
