I can’t tell you how many years I have waited to become a grandmother. I had just about lost hope when, approximately two years ago, our daughter and her husband told us they had started the adoption process. Then the waiting began. Last October, they finally got the referral for a baby boy born in South Korea on Feb. 28, 2010. We received four pictures and his history. Then a new wait began. Fortunately, monthly medical reports were sent and a few more photos but the wait was difficult for all. We missed his first Christmas and his first birthday and were afraid we’d miss other important firsts but the call to travel finally came the morning of March 11. By March 14 we were on a plane headed for Seoul, South Korea.
