Excited!

I am having butterflies in my stomach as I think about a new baby coming home with us. Kinda the same as when Ani or Nate were about to be born. Not from being nervous about the birth mom possibly changing her mind, but that mixture of amazement and wow factor about a new baby.
I keep thinking about how I'm going to change my nighttime prayer specifically for him. Nate and Ani's prayer is:

Sleep well, my precious Son/Daughter.
May God watch over you and protect you while you sleep,
and may he soothe you through your nighttime troubles.
I love you Nate/Ani.

I think I'll add something like:
Sleep well, my precious Son.
May God watch over you and protect you while you sleep,
and may he soothe you through your nighttime troubles.
I thank God for leading your path to our family.
I love you xxxxxx.

The social worker was wondering how/when we would broach the subject, and I was thinking it might be part of his whole life. He'll still see his birth mom, but his path was led to be part of our family.
