Celebrating New Families

Some days I miss working events.
Today our adoption support group had a surprise baby shower for a family that just welcomed a one year old. They had a rough paper pregnancy, with a couple terrible change of hearts. We were all so excited to see this new little boy placed with them! He is adorable!
The party was a hit! There were lots of food, friends, and gifts. And enough kids to overdose on cuteness. I was excited to get to plan and decorate the event. It was jungle and monkey themed- zebra print table runners, monkey banners, zebra lanterns, a giant monkey balloon, animal print water bottles, monkey bread, jungle cupcakes...  I wish I could throw parties like this everyday!
There are several more families waiting for matches in our group. I hope that they are placed soon, before we move. I love getting to see families grow through adoption.
It is making me very excited for our future embryo adoption. There are several big reasons that I am looking guard to our impending cross-country move. And the embryo adoption is definitely one of them!
