"TIME" a very powerful word and concept

Hi!
We have been home 2 years and 4 months now. Someone asked me the other day if I could give our adoption experience one word what would it be? The most fitting word is "Time". All of it takes "time". Time to do all the paperwork, time to get yourself prepared to leave to go meet your child, time with the child in the country and time to finally bring your child home. Then the "Time" word really goes into action. Our home "time" was the most valuable "time". The other "times" were just stepping stones to this "time". That's a lot of TIME!! Ha Ha Ha

So in a nutshell...it took us "time" to bond with Quinn. And Quinn needed "time" too to bond to a family. What an experience this has been. So thankful to TIME!
