A New Beginning

One of the things I love about my life is my job.  While it has its challenges, it is work that I feel is important and adds to the world.  I work as a clinical social worker in surrogacy.  Today I got to call one of our intended parents to tell him that his daughter is being born.  I was at once filled with excitement and happiness and worry (as he had to figure out how to get there from far away...). 

I remember that feeling.  Knowing that my daughter was being born and how all consuming that is.  Like the day I was told that there was a boy waiting for me to go adopt him.  Two days I will have etched in my brain and heart forever.  Today, I did something that someone else will never forget.  Amazing!
