Because we don't know when our baby will come to us, we thought it would be a good idea to have a few things ready. So we did some research and picked out which car seat and stroller we want. The stroller was delivered the Tuesday after Mother's Day.
I know it might look like just another stroller to the average eye but it's not. This stroller is different. It is the first "big" baby item we purchased. This stroller is a symbol of hope. It is putting our faith in God that we will get our baby. This stroller represents parenthood. I know some days when I look at the stroller in our future nursery I will be filled with excitement at what our life will be like when we have a baby in our home. There will also be days I know when I see the empty stroller in the empty room, I will be filled with sadness that our dream of having children has not come true yet. As it is with the adoption waiting game, emotions are like a roller coaster. But for right now I am excited and hopeful that we will find our baby.
