Paperwork!!!

We got a phone call and an e-mail tonite telling us that we can now start the paperwork!! LET THE FUN BEGIN!!!! ;)

We printed out all the papers of info... Lots of things to get around...
We need to get a new birth certificate, marriage license... can't be copies... So praying that once we get the online form filled out, we will get them quickly... ;) There are other things we need to get as well, paper work from our doc's, background checks from all the states we lived in... That one will be the fun one, Indiana, Michigan, Iowa and Maryland! Again, praying that we can get them quickly! And if we can't, that I won't be stressing about not getting them! ;)

We also e-mailed our "contact person" (the lady that sent us this e-mail is the person we will have until we get our child(ren)! She's the one we ask all questions, etc...) about the home study since we still haven't heard on that one. Hoping to know more about that this week! :)

Anywho, that's where we are so far!

Oh, we have had 2 garage sales and have made $800! :) We had to send a $2,000 check in a few weeks ago and we had $1,500. With our first garage sale, I said, it would be cool to get atleast $400! Then as the day was going on, there was a buck here and there and then 20 here and there... I was thinking, wow, we won't even make $300! After we packed it all up, came inside and counted the money... Guess how much we had made? We made EXACTLY $501!!!!! I said, ok God, I get it, I trust You, You got this!!! :)

God is providing and I need to keep trusting Him for everything, including the paper work!

Thank you for all your prayers!!!

Run-Aways

Wow, this has seriously been an eventful week! Starting off with the whole fabric softener mis-hap, which you can read on here if you didn't see or hear about it! Then Curt left Monday nite, Tuesday, well, it was ok, we had mom's group and the kids were acting up a bit, but nothing too bad... Then Wednesday I had a meeting at the church... It started out ok, the meeting wasn't long at all! Gavin came into the room and said he wanted to go play outside on the playground. I told him no, because I couldn't see him. I said, what if someone came by and picked you up and grabbed you and took you somewhere? Mommy would never see you again and I would be soooo sad! I said, I can't see you, so you need to stay inside. Well, not more than 3 minutes passed and Kotah comes up to me and says, uh, mom, Gavin is trying to go outside. So, I get up, go over to him and talk. I asked him what is he doing? he says, I WANT to play OUTSIDE! I said, bubby, I can't see you, so you can...

Judah's Wife Book Review

I received this book from Bethany House for free if I agreed to read and then blog about it. Judah's Wife is by Angela Hunt. I've read a few of her books and absolutely enjoyed and loved them!  I was very excited to be picked to read this book! I've honestly not read anything from the books of Maccabees.  This story is the "silent years' between Malachi and Matthew. I really would like find Maccabees now to read it since I've read this book. This book was amazing! Love being able to read stories that really capture what it was like.  Angela Hunt has done this in this book. I really enjoyed how she told it from Judah's side and Leahs side.  It would go back and forth, but it wasn't confusing at all. Talks about Leahs up-bringing and how she struggled. Her father wasn't a real father figure and in time she realizes how much her mother protected her from her father and his blows. She struggles to truly love Judah at first who was somewhat fo...

Cancelled

What a busy crazy day! Curt left right away this morning around 7 to get his blood taken.  He got back and then Audrey got here.  We played and picked up for a bit then left to go to the Health Department to get our TB test done.  We got there around 10ish and they told us we needed to make an appointment.  So we waited for a bit to make an appointment.  Thankfully they had an opening for today yet.  They only do these tests on Friday, so we really didn't want to have to wait until next Friday if at all possible.  Got an appointment for 1:15 and 1:30.  I was thinking ugh, either no nap and very little nap, but I didn't care!  ;) Got home, cleaned up a bit more, got the kiddos some lunch, then we turned around and left to go back to the Health Department.  (I did NOT see the water guy! ;)) Got back there, got asked some questions, wanted to know why I need the test...  I said adoption.  They saw all the other 5 kids and as...
