phone call

I called my grandmother today to make some plans for a visit in April. While on the phone, I told her about our plans to adopt (I haven’t talked to her since Christmas). She was so supportive as she listened to me explain. We talked about how we may be able to take a five generation photo at my great-grandmother’s 100th birthday (in September), if we have a placement by then. My grandmother said that she felt really excited about the prospect of a great-grandchild. It made me feel so happy. She’s so reserved and while I know she loves me, it’s nice to hear her express genuine excitement. It as a great moment and makes me only more excited about the adoption.
