Anticlimax

I’ve sort of been struggling with what to do about this blog. Just before panel it got to the point where I was doing almost daily updates with so much happening and now that we’ve been approved everything’s stopped and there isn’t a lot to report. I suppose I should continue to post my thoughts and report anything that happens to reflect the different nature of the adoption process at this stage, but it’s such an anticlimax at the moment. From all the excitement and nerves of a month ago we moved on to the congratulatory messages and celebrations and now everything’s died down and it’s strange not to have an interview scheduled, a piece of “homework” to prepare, or much at all to report.

Glen and I continue with our voluntary work at beavers and the school respectively and there are still a couple of books to read. I have been meaning to write up reviews of the books we have read so far, so I may do that soon.

It was our second wedding anniversary yesterday so we went out to dinner to celebrate. It was another of those moments when we wondered whether this time next year we’ll be celebrating the anniversary with more members in our little family!
