Day 1

*

So today was our first day of meeting with a counselor to get more information about adoption and whatever ramifications there are to consider in making our decision. Of course, after talking with her, we are now more confused then we were before. We are going to see her again next week and probably more than that as well. We really care about making the right decision for (S) and for us. One fear is that the right decision for (S) may not be the right decision for us and visa-versa.

In the meantime, (S) spent the entire night last night in her bedroom. This is the second time in the last 2 weeks or so. We are definitely making progress there. Hopefully it will continue. There is enough stress in our life right now with the wedding for (K) in less than 3 weeks and the decision on (S). We need to get our sleep. Hopefully once the stress of the wedding is over we will be able to see clearly what our decision will be. My fear however is that we will forever be in a fog.

I think I hear DW and (S) driving into the garage. I have to greet (S) at the door as she does that
when I get home.........more to follow
