My heart was speaking!

We have still no news from Korea (the next referrals are expected in april)
but yesterday I spoke about adoption at work.
I wanted to have a referral but I was really angry with
my boss. They changed my school timetable again (and it's worse) and my boss
said "I'm sorry, I know this year you had to stand a lot, for example an ugly time table, but next year..."
Without thinking I heard myself saying "Probably next year I'll be in maternity leave!"
So my boss eyes went to my tummy and I said "I'm not pregnant, it's an adoption"
He said he was happy and I went to my class.
That means that I really want this baby!
I really would like some good news now, most of all because I'm worried for
the risk of radiations from Japan (Korea is so near Fukushima!!)

Shopping for the baby!

Even if the only news I got from our Agency is a raising
in the costs for Korean adoptions, the upcoming spring
is giving me some hope... so without thinking I purchased
two little things for our Korean baby! I know it's strange
because we don't even know his/her name but I needed
these gifts for me, to keep thinking positive...
The little clothes are two t-shirts (one with Goofy and one
with some cute animals). They are 9 months old size because
the average of the Korean babies coming here in Italy are of
8 months.

I've also written to some famous companies of baby food
asking for samples (easier to bring during the trip to Korea).
They sent me lots of samples and also a cute spoon with
a bear on it. Now all seems ready for our baby.
Let's hope that this items will bring soon some luck with
our referral!
