This blog is a rambling and reflective journal of our long and emotional journey to adopt our daughter, Tya, from China. We welcome you to join us, support us and enjoy this momentous occassion with us. Why Tya as a name you may ask? Tyendinaga was the name of the reserve where Jeff grew up...so Tya for short.

A Year!!!!
Tomorrow marks one year of being Logged-In. A year!!! That is 12 months!! That does not even count the 9 months it took us to complete our home-study and get all our paper work done. So when people ask me about the adoption is it any wonder I answer with...I don't know, I don't have a clue. It has started to feel like a lie that I am telling people. I haven't been keeping up with blogs like I used to. I haven't heard a thing from our agency. I feel so disconnected from the process at this point, when I was busy with the paper work I felt like it was more real. So here we are....12 months logged in and millions of miles from bringing Tya home. I could go on and on but I am trying to live in the moment and focus on what is going on in my life right now, but for this one time a month on the 19th, I allow myself to think about Tya and to wallow in the despair I feel at times, I allow myself to be dramatic and to feel sad. Then I get on with life and think about my two beautiful girls that are here right now and my wonderful family and friends.
