Our Last Road Trip Before Parenthood

We are packing our suitcase and about to travel to Atlanta for a Monday meeting with the Colombian Consulate.

The reason we're heading down is to obtain my Visa, which will allow me to participate in the legal system in Colombia when we are finalizing our adoption of Little Baby Forrester. Claudia doesn't need a visa since she is from Colombia.

Please say a prayer Monday for us. The Consulate experience can be hit or miss. There are examples of employees being very gracious and other times enjoying power trips; and that's being nice.

We are rapidly approaching our Gotcha Day, May 23. While grabbing a quick lunch this afternoon, it dawned on us that this trip, as rushed as it is, will be our last "road trip" before parenthood.

There are numerous moments each day that it occurs to us parenthood is imminent. I had lunch with a friend Friday and described it as a "freight train of blessings!"
