Welcome

Hello!!! Thanks for visiting our blog. We are Troy & Angie. We adopted our son, Riley, from Korea.
I enjoyed reading other people's blogs so much that I thought I would do one of my own. I know many of you that are in the adoption process will mostly want to see our adoption timeline. I always loved to know how other's timelines were going. I hope I can offer those who read information that is helpful while also keeping my friends and family informed!!

Today is the day!!!

Hey everybody,
Well, it is just about 1 1/2 hours till we meet Riley again!!! I can hardly believe the time has come!!!! Troy and I just went out for breakfast and have come back to the room to wait. We only have to walk next door for the meeting. I am starting to get a little nervous, but honestly not as nervous as I thought I would be. Not yet anyway! It is hard to believe that we will bring him with us when this meeting is over. I'm sure it will be emotional for everyone. The other day at our first meeting, when our social worker was asking us what time we wanted to meet, Riley's foster mom almost started crying. I feel so sad for her, yet so happy for myself. It is a weird situation. You can tell she loves him. It makes me feel better knowing that she has done this before, although that doesn't meet it gets easier for her. Just pray that God will comfort her today!! Also pray that Riley will have an easy transition and not be too upset. I know it will be much for difficult for them than for Troy and I.

I will try and post again sometime today, but I am sure I will be busy with my new son!!!!

Keep us in your prayers,
Angie

I can't believe that today is the day!!! I am so excited for you guys. I know you must be very excited and nervous all at the same time. I hope the transition goes well for all. Riley is lucky to have had foster parents that cared for him this much. Take care and best of luck.
