I'm pretty sure everyone in the world as seen the movie Hitch with Will Smith. There's a part in the first scene when Hitch is in the car with one of his clients, giving him a pep talk for the first date he's about to have. It goes like this-
Tonight when you're trying to figure out what to say or wondering how you look, just remember that she is already out with you. That means she said yes when she could have said no. She made a plan when she could have just blown you off. So that means it is no longer your job to try to make her like you. It is your job NOT TO MESS IT UP!
Hahaha! I was thinking about that as I was getting ready this morning and it made me smile. :) We are not nervous yet. :) This meeting doesn't feel as much like a blind date, as it does the introduction of people who have mutual friends. Our social worker knows a LOT about us and we trust her. This potential birthmom's social worker knows a LOT about her, and they have built a relationship based on trust as well. Both social workers think this is a good match, so we expect this meeting to go well. It's so nice to work with people that we feel genuinely have our best interest at heart! :) Lunch is at noon today - keep us in your prayers if you think of us! I will try to post an update as soon as I can. :)
Sending good thoughts!!!! Can't wait to hear the update. Hugs.
