Our first year anniversary of our LID was February 6th. So why am I writing about it three days later? Well, the truth is that this momentous day came and went with barely a passing thought. At one point I said, "Hey, you know what day it is?"
David sighed. "Yeah. One year."
We nodded in unison. I said, "Can you believe it?"
We just left it at that. We weren't in a mood to... well, what does one do for this day? Celebrate? We didn't feel much like celebrating. Yeah, it's a milestone and yes, each day brings us closer to Referral Day and travel to China. That's good, I guess.
The truth is, we just weren't too excited about this anniversary. We acknowledged it and moved on with our lives.
Kind of sums up how life has been in this long wait. We probably have another eight months before referral, and that's if we're lucky. We're committed to being in the moment, and not living for the future. Right now, that feels right.
Not sure how I got to this zen place or how long I'll stay here. Next cappuccino will probably change everything!!
