I cannot type the excitement that we are feeling right now. Progress has not stopped with Bethany and will not. Who knows we may even have 2 children before we know it.
We have talked with the birthmother and her family. They are excited that they have found a family for the child. We are excited that they have found us.
Arthur told his mom and dad. Then I told my mom and dad. We told them that we wanted to keep it quiet for now. So a BIG secret was kept. Finally, Arthur and I decided that we were ready to tell the rest of the family. We decided that we would have a crawfish boil to let the rest of the family here know. Then the idea of shirts with our names on them came up - Mommy, Daddy, MiMi2, Pop T, Nanny and Paw Paw. So the "grandparents" get here and I show them the set up of how I was going to tell everyone. First, I brought Michelle in to ask her opinion of Will's room. Then Alec and MiMi2 came looking along with Mama Vee, Aunt Sara and Uncle Butch. Everyone is just as thrilled about it as we are. Alec can even say Will's name.
Here are some pictures of the crawfish boil and all of us in our special shirts.
