Today's another very important day for us!  We're expecting a visit from our licensing worker for our final walk through!  It seems there's a pressing need for homes willing to accept kiddos between the ages of 12 and 14 so it wouldn't surprise me if we're opening our doors before Spring even arrives!
We're settling in nicely, all of our rooms are set up and "livable", just have to attack the last of the cardboard kingdom!
It's so nice to have storage space and not have boxes stored away in every nook and cranny of every room in the house!  The garage and basement are invaluable!
While I have a LOT to say about what's going on in the world, I can't possibly formulate thoughts that would take less than 10,000 words to "pen", so I'm just going to keep them to myself and try to pray my frustration away!
I know there aren't many of you keeping up with this.. it's amazing how people forget about you all together when you don't feed into social media.  Thanks to those of you who still care and REACH OUT! :)  I'd love to hear how you're doing!

There aren't words..

Had you told me a week ago what my life would look like today, I would have given you classic Jen-eye and asked but surely enough, Friday afternoon after a whirlwind 48 hours of what ifs, a bright, beautiful, smart, insightful, loving, hilarious little girl moved into our home!  We survived our first weekend quite swimmingly if I do say so myself!!  I really struggled with how it would feel to have a child around full time and if I really had that "parenting thing" in me.  Do I ever!  Both of us have adapted quite nicely to our roles and for as long as God will keep her here, we're looking forward starting our new family in our new house as if we're new creatures!  Hard to remember what our boring lives were like pre-kiddo! ;)

WHAT will I do without facebook?!?!

It's been a week and a half since I gave up Facebook for my experimental Lent activity.  For the first couple of days, I literally didn't know what to do with my phone or laptop.  I would stare aimlessly at both devices trying to figure out how to manage these contraptions without my lifeline.  In ten short days I've learned a few things. 1.)  I have been seriously neglecting the "real" people in my life.  You know, the ones who are actually a part of my life outside of the trap that is Facebook  It's amazing how when you're not constantly synced with FB, you feel disconnected from the world, yet after a few days of real live human interaction, you realize just how much you've been missing with the ones you  love! 2.) Turns out Facebook isn't the only source of legitimate news!  Before social networking, we actually had to reference the news, whether via TV, a newspaper, or a search engine.  It's nice to learn of the news without all of the...
My heart is pounding, my palms are sweating, my mind is racing, and my cup is running over!  Yesterday I was just a wife!  Today I'm a Mommy!  Today my life changes forever and I'm already so in love with this girl I can't handle it!  Today is a good day!  Today is the day I add the title of "Mom" to my self-description! Our home was owned before us by a fellow Foster Mom.  She has been a great support to me over the past two weeks and shared this with me yesterday! My life will undoubtedly be changed, and undeniably for the better!   Is she here yet?????
