Adoption Update(Finally)!!



Our computer crashed a couple of weeks ago, so I haven't been able to update the blog. So, here is the latest update on the adoption of Baby J. His court hearing was continued until the 26th of this month because not all the paperwork was completed by his social worker in time for the hearing. Now I realize these are very over-worked and underpaid people, but when my sons permanency is put on hold because someone simply didn't do their job...that really drives me crazy! I am thankful that the hearing was continued relatively soon, only a couple of weeks. Please pray that the next hearing will actually be heard, and progress can be made!

Goose Eggs and Lucky Days!


Yesterday, when we were leaving church I realized that Isaac had a new bump right in the middle of his forehead. When I asked him what happened, he reluctantly told me that he ran into the gate at church(Lately, he is sensitive to being teased or standing out in any way.) I asked him if he cried because the goose egg on his head looked like it must have hurt. He said "No!" then asked what a goose egg was, and I thought I explained to him that it was just a funny name we have given bumps like the one he had on his head. Later, at lunch he asked me if everyone had goose eggs in their heads or just him! I had to laugh! After more explaining, I think he understands now!
Today, when I was getting Camille out of her car seat she asked me, "Is today my lucky day?" I have no idea where she got that from, but I told her "Yes! And it's mine too, because I get to be with you!" We had a good giggle and a hug!
Kids just say the funniest things!
