SINGLE WAITING MOMMIES DINNER


I must say I had a great evening last night. A group of single waiting mommies that I met online met for dinner for the first time. We are all in different stages of our adoption process but all share the same goal...to bring our babies home!
We met at the Mandarin for dinner and spent the next four hours eating, chatting and laughing!
The four of us are pictured here, back row; Catherine(Catherine's Chatter), R(our mystery mom-to-be) wishes to remain anonymous for now as she doesn't have her referal yet and hasn't told alot of people about her adoption plans. In the front row are myself and Cari(Journey to Jordyn). Sheena, another online friend was to meet us also but unfortunately got lost and arrived late and when she ckecked with the hostess they somehow had lost Cari's and my name that we had left with them. As none knew what the other looked like even walking through the restaurant didn't help....so sorry we missed you Sheena....our next dinner is on May 12....and now you have this pic of what we look like.
Looking forward to meeting you at the next dinner...maybe I'll bring Ava....I'm sure I'll have lots of offers to entertain her!


Thankyou Catherine for so generously bringing
everyone this lovely ladybug mug....I just love it!
I'm looking forward to the next mommies in waiting dinner on May 12....but I will no longer be a mommy in waiting....will have to bring Ava along!!

I think that it is fantastic that you all have come together like that! We all need a strong support system though this journey.

It was such a wonderful evening and extra special as we were able to celebrate your TA with you.

So sorry to hear that Sheena made it all the way there but couldn't find us. Ugh!!! I feel awful!

Hopefully she can make it on May 12th! That will be an exciting dinner as Miss Ava will be with us and possibly a couple of other babies too!
