We got word our paperwork is in Rwanda and headed to the Minister of Gender and Family Promotions! This is a very exciting and slightly nerve racking time for us. We are getting ready for both our girls end of year dance recital this Sat., we have a reporter named Chelsea coming out from the Concord Monitor to hang out with us the first part of the day Sat. to complete her family interview for a story they are running on us, we are trying to get our last couple of hours in to stay licensed with the state as foster parents, we have our big fundraiser, as you all know by heart now, next Sat. the 14th and we have HGTV coming to film for a day on the 24th for the show "My house is worth what?" Oh ya, and we are attempting to get in a few baseball games for Asia Grace and her coachpitch team! But it is all GOOD! When we come home with two more children, and all these big events are behind us, it will ultimately slow down and feel much simpler. I guess this is God's way of preparing us for what lies ahead :)
