4th Of July has always had a VERY importance factor to me and every American. With Scott deploying 3 times and supporting the troops it is near and dear to my heart. Last 4th of July Scott was in Iraq so we didn't get to celebrate, the year before he was already gone training for the deployment. So this marks 2 years of missing the holiday as a family. This year I thought for sure we would ALL be together.
I was REALLY PRAYING Anna would be with me celebrating the 4th of July and totally thought she would be, I bought her and Ella some cute outfits to wear together. As the month of June goes by and no EP, I am pretty sure she still will not be in my arms. :(
No one who has not been in my shoes can understand it. Only adoptive Mom's and Dad's can. When you can "see" the light at the end of the tunnel is when I will feel more at peace. I know we will be on a plane soon to Korea to meet the family who has been taking care of Anna for a whole year and meeting Anna will be forever life changing. I dream about that day.
SO with a travel call not in the near future, I am mailing Anna's 4th of July dress to Korea, with a note, hoping she can wear it on July 4th. :)
