Feeling flooded with positive emotions. We made the decision a couple nights ago to adopt 2 kids from foster care (11 year old and 8 year old). The kids were told last night and we talked on the phone to them after they were told. Today when they called, the 11 year old excitedly said "hi mom!" It felt amazing to hear her call me mom since I thought it would take some time before she was comfortable enough to call me that. Between all this new excitment and an increase in meds yesterday, hopefully I'll be able to take care of the depressive episode that I feel coming on before it gets too bad.
