Finally going to meet

Well, after weeks of phone calls, the birth date was scheduled. Sophia was going to have a c-section birth and the date was going to be September 8th, 2009. We booked our flights just a few days before, and Missy (me) and Anna flew out to Utah on September 4th, with planning on meeting with Sophia the following day. Sohpia later told us she was so excited, and new when our plane would land, she told those around her, "she is here now!".

On Saturday at 4:00pm, we planned on meeting in Orem at the Olive Garden for Lunch. I got butterflies in my stomach waiting. Karina was with me for all the support that a best friend can give. Sohpia and Tamara (the social worker) were running late, because Sophia had gone to a movie and it ran later than planned. So we just waited in the lobby of the Olive Garden.

Finally she showed up and little tears entered the corners of my eyes. We had a wonderful visit, and found out lots of little things about each other. Like the fact that Sophia loves alfredo! After dinner we went to a park and continued our nice visit, and let Anna run around and play.
