a nice story

Sorry to be such a negative nelly lately. This story gives me warm fuzzies…

D has gotten to know SA (who owns a business near D’s office) during the past couple of years. D shared our adoption plans with SA who is quite excited for us. Just recently SA came with a friend to D’s office and mentioned to her friend that D was adopting and he’ll make such a great dad! SA also said that she needs to regularly check in with D to provide encouragement during the wait and generate baby excitement. She said that because we don’t exhibit the outside changes of expecting a child which causes excitement and the baby buzz, that she needed to take it upon herself to create the buzz on her own with D. What a sweet woman!

There are some people in our lives that are really excited and generate a buzz that gets us excited as well but there are many more that don’t. So I thought it was a neat story that someone who is pretty much a stranger to us is making an effort in this way.
