It is early Friday morning about 4:30 a.m. Today is monumental. I will start by having breakfast with Mark, my new pal. He is a KAD (Korean Adult Adoptee)-I am meeting a lot of adoptees, it rocks. Then I will get ready to host a party. I am hosting both of my AMAZING Holt Korea social workers, Mrs.You and Mrs.Lee, along with Mrs.Oh, Mrs.Yi, and Mrs.Go, my children's beloved foster mothers in Seoul. We are having a luncheon. I am so excited!!!! I miss them very much. I have not seen Mrs. Lee yet, nor Mrs. Oh, I keep missing her by minutes. I am looking forward to seeing Mrs. Yi as well. It's been a year. After lunch is "Gotcha Day". I will become Ji-uk's mother forever. I am thrilled! I am thinking of the sadness the foster mother will feel. She is such a sweet person. Ji-uk will be upset too. But I know he will soon be in a loving forever home where he will be cherished, adored and most of all loved by parents, siblings, halmonies, haraboji, emo's, etc...His new life will begin, his old life will be treasured, and never forgotten.
I may not get to post again with an active toddler, but when I get home, I will post palace, baby, shopping, train, airplane, and Seoul photos.
Gamsahamnida!!!
