Monday (May 26) happens to be my 20th birthday *pause for claps and cheers*. I am ready to say goodbye to my teens and get into my twenties.
I've realized over the last couple years that I am never going to tell anyone my age again. I know that's foolish, but its not for the reason you think. I want people to appreciate what I do because I do a good job. Not because I do a good job "even though I'm so young" "even though I'm a millennial" etc etc.... From now on, if anyone asks, I do not disclose my age. If the issue is pressed, I am, 26 maybe? I'll decide on that later...
I was also told at the end of April that near the end of May I would be getting a call whether adoption applications here in Nova Scotia are going to be accepted again or not. We are still waiting on news! I am anxiously waiting by the phone, which seems to be making me cranky. C doesn't seem to be nearly as impatient or as bothered by the waiting for a call process. I think once things are in motion it should get a little easier. Maybe? Anyone?? I keep browsing adoption sites and re-watching the adoption videos on the Nova Scotia government page and Adoption.com, as if that's any consolation or assistance while we are waiting.
In other news, my best friend heard her baby's heartbeat the other day at her 14 week ultrasound (JEALOUS!!!) She is super excited and so am I! I get to be Godmother of her little one and I am going to spoil it rotten! Hey, I might not ever have kids of my own. You never know, so I might as well spoil her's!

I also have more exciting news for you guys but it will have to wait to the weekend before I can tell you, because things are not finalized. It has nothing to do with kids, but is awesome news just the same!
Thanks for reading, stay tuned! :)
