As each holiday comes and we don't have kids, I get more excited about the things that we will do as a family. Right now, holidays really don't mean much to us. Sometimes we'll go through the motions - tomorrow (4th of July), we're having a few friends over, grilling out, playing some yard games and might go check some local fireworks. All in all, though, we could take it or leave it.
I imagine what these days will be like when we have kids. I think back to my childhood and how special holidays were - fireworks, carnivals, family and friends, food, music, etc. I can't wait to start those traditions with my kids and make these times special for them as well.
Our social worker popped by for a home visit this week, but still nothing on the horizon. There is a web site that we can go and look for kids awaiting home, but they are mostly older kids with very special needs. We're just being patient and I know our time is coming!
