Yes. It's me. Posting. On a Blog. Also referred to as Peer Pressure. And perhaps Vanity, since I've yet to show off a picture of my own sweet girl. So, let's get this party started. This is me. I'm about 6 weeks away from my travel date to pick my beautiful daughter, Makeda. This is Her. 
I've been working diligently to meet my baby girl for just over a year now, and a lot of people have joined me on my journey. Some of them, I've known forever, and look forward to introducing over time. Some of them, I've met through the internet. All of them have enriched my life beyond measure. These are my parents - my #1 fans and fellow travel companions to Addis. None of this would have happened, or been nearly as much fun, without them.
These are my boys. We've been together forever. They're cute, they're spoiled, and they're in for one hell of a shock.

This is my favourite toy. It comes of out storage tomorrow.
And that is my exploratory trip into bloggerdom. Let the games begin....

Great title by the way!

I'm thrilled that you decided to throw your hat into the blogosphere. And I'm so excited that I'll now get to stalk you on your adoption process. :-)

I look forward to reading as I'm from Canada as well and considering adoption in the (near) future.
Congratulatons on Makeda! That is so exciting. Thanks for sharing her photo. You can see how big my Baby has become since I adopted him in 2002 on my blog.

Welcome to blogging Barbara! Better get a few posts in before Makeda arrives home! Computer time will be a tad cut down after your sweetie is in your arms (and rightly so). Can't wait to read more!
