Cling!

We have officially entered the cling stage. Adoptive families typically go through this stage shortly after coming home with their new child. Sunder has explored her home and surroundings and is comfortable with them. Now she is really working on establishing trust with me. Every 5 seconds she wants "Up, please" (or as she puts it, "Uh Beeeee."). She wants to make sure I'm going to be there for her over and over again. And I think it's important to do just that. So she is getting carried all over the place. What makes this tricky is that Riley is also needing a lot of attention, loving, and holding too right now. It was a tiring long weekend with both of them being so needy. They are both going through huge adjustments right now and I'm doing my best to accomodate both of them. I certainly go to bed exhaused each night, but also feeling happy because both girls are processing these huge changes in their lives.
