What the Future Holds

I've been thinking ALOT about the future. I know that everybody does this...but it's been constantly on my mind lately. My immediate future holds uncertainty, much love, many tears...and the GREATEST gift God...or anyone for that fact has every given me.
I think about that email that basically says, "You're ready to travel, make your travel plans and PACK!" Insomnia will ensue, I'm sure...along with a major case of jitters! For months now, I've been getting this and that, making piles here and there. I've even started situating things in suitcases--all in anticipation of that moment.
The moment I first see Vietnam from the sky *sigh*
My first night in Vietnam--no sleep/alot of pacing!
The extremely long drive to his orphanage...we pull into the drive in front of it...
I walk up to the center, salty tears stinging my eyes, tears of complete happiness...
The moment I first see my son---time stands still...
I can't believe I'm finally here, able to touch him, to whisper in his ear just how much I love him, how I'm the one that's blessed to have him in my life...to be able to call him my son!
The first time I hear someone refer to me as 'his momma'
The first moment it's just Tanner and I, struggling through our first night alone....
The complete bliss that will be when he first reaches for me....
The first time my family sees him, as we arrive home...
Our first night at home....
The rest of our lives...my son, me as his momma

The Future Holds so many wonders, surprises, laughs and tears...I'm so lucky, so blessed to walk through the rest of my life with such an angel...
