Anticipation

We've been through a whirlwind of emotions the lat week.  And today has been no exception.  I've had quite a few happy tears today.

We got to meet our two newest family members last night.  And it went amazingly.  The girls warmed up to us very quickly and Agnes and Anna were fast friends.  Agnes kept saying, "I like my new friend Annie!"  Mya took a few minutes to warm up to us but by the end of the visit, she was upset that I had to give her back to the case worker.  They're beautiful and sweet and are a perfect fit for our family.

We certainly have some challenges with the "learning to share" category with 4 toddlers.  And there will be some attention seeking tantrums I'm sure (likely from Anna who throws those all the time anyway).  But overall, I feel as though they'll acclimate quickly.  We're looking forward to spending time as a family of 6 (did I seriously just type that?!?).

I'm sure we're in for quite the transition.  Both with Agnes and Mya and with Anna and Anthony.  But we couldn't be more excited.  We're ready for the challenge and we're ready for the house full of beautiful toddlers!
