Go ahead, by muchagecko (4.00 / 1) #1 Fri Aug 17, 2007 at 02:12:11 AM EST
start by jumping into the DEEP end of the pool.

You'd better start saving for her college tuition - yesterday!!!

I'm thrilled for you both.

Not much we can/should say. She'll be 16 in two months. Currently living with an AWESOME foster family not far from us. We will become her foster parents while the adoption process plays out, probably 6 to 12 months. We met her last Thursday, took her shopping for school clothes Sunday. We'll have her Wednesday evening and all next weekend (Friday night to Sunday evening). We'll have a foster paper-signing party Tuesday the 28th and move her in.

We honestly haven't come up with a good nick for her yet.

16!!! by Corky Sherwood (4.00 / 1) #27 Wed Aug 22, 2007 at 08:02:19 PM EST
Wow I didn't think you were adopting that old, but that's awesome!  What great parents you'll be; guiding her through these years as she becomes a woman.  That's so great!

Keep us posted!
