Someone shared this quote with me today, and I thought it was so true to my personal journey that I wanted to share it with you all. Hai has certainly set me on a "mythic quest" and has also reminded me of how connected we all are.
"Adoption is a metaphor for the human condition, setting us forth on a mythic quest that will prove that we are connected to each other and to all the creatures of this world and in this process, reveal to us who we really are."
Betty Jean Lifton, author of Journey of the Adopted Self
Love all, Melissa + Hai

This blog is about my journey to become a mom which led me to a little boy named Nguyen Xuan Hai (aka "Hai"). I am writing this so you can all join me on that journey and share in all the ups and downs of bringing him home, but probably not the sleepless nights...

Wow. That is great. We are having our Home Study Interview today. Looks like we are about to find out who we really are. Fingers crossed!
