Adventures of Sadie Rae: Sadie Sees the Sea

Since my entire life now revolves around this tiny and adorable human, it's a safe bet that anything new and interesting from the McGovern family will involve her. Or the cows, since that's what my life has come to. And that's where we are. So without further gilding the lily and no more ado (name that movie) I give you the latest new and exciting exploits of our Sadie Bug.

There are a few things in life I can always count on- chocolate chips, summer, and Downton Abbey , to name a few.   At the bittersweet conclusion of the Masterpiece series Maggie Smith's character reflects: "It makes me smile the way every year we drink to the new year, whatever it may bring." I appreciate her optimism, if not her passive assertion that the future just kind of happens to us. I like to think that we can have a little more control over what happens in our lives, the keyword being *can*.   As I listened to those final lines I thought about how bleak the future often seems and how easy it would be to curl up on my couch and watch Downton Abbey reruns while the future happens to me.

Those were rough exchanges, I'm sure for both of us. Joey and I held our breath during the seven months leading up to finalization in court and Sadie's sealing to us in the temple, especially as more than one well-meaning? individual told us stories about couples they knew who had adopted only to have the birth mother or father change their mind and take the child back. "You never know!" They would say. "But I do hope that doesn't happen with you." Please never, ever tell these stories to adopting couples until after things have settled. They are already aware of the possibility, and they are probably more familiar with the adoption laws surrounding their situation than you are. Sadie goes to court In that vein, it doe...
