Have you also discovered nieces and nephews? Might make Christmas a bit more expensive this year.  ;D ;D

For anyone who is interested - Saturday is 'meeting day'.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to stop this nervous feeling?

 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Presumably you'll be taking someone with you to the meeting.  When I met my adopted daughter  (that is the one I gave up for adoption) for the first time since she was 10 days old,  it was nerve-wracking for both of us.  My husband was with me and she had a friend with her.  Once we met though it was fine.

Good luck and enjoy the rest of your life with your brother.

I'd guess that your brother is feeling just as nervous as you are!

I do hope it all goes well. I'm sure it will!

Hi Rishile,

Just been reading these posts for the first time and wanted to wish you all the very best for your meeting with your brother on Saturday.

Hope you'll let us know how it all went.

Cheers

No, you will feel sick and wonder whether you've done right thing, you'll wonder what he's like, all those things......it's part of the process, so just go with the flow. You'll see, it will be just fine, you've already done the groundwork and talked to him over the phone for a long time. I bought a " sister" card that I'd personalized and took my picture album of my family. Don't forget the camera !!!
I will be thinking of you and enjoy your brother. Please let us know how you got on. Are his ears burning ?  :)

Thank you everyone.  I'm really excited but very nervous and I know he is too.  Maybe he is more nervous than me but I don't know how he can be.  ;D

Our respective spouses will be with us but, hopefully, they will give us some time to just be on our own for a while. 

I suppose this is what I was hoping for when I started this.  I will let you know how things go.
