A Life in Progress…

We had to say goodbye to a good car this past week. Sad, I know. The reason is not because of our own actions. It was because we were in a accident. Here is the story... We were on our way home from a friends birthday dinner last Saturday night. We got to the intersection of Wellesley & Wall and I noticed a vehicle approaching the intersection very quickly. Even though we had the green light, Will did not proceed until that vehicle had slowed down enough that we knew that he was going to stop for the red light he/she had. We then proceeded down Wall St. As we are driving down Wall, I am looking down at my phone (I think I was going to text someone) and all of a sudden - BAM ! We were hit! One of my greatest driving fears had almost been realized. I have a fear of being t-boned. Anyway, I digress, someone ran the stop sign at the intersection of Queen & Wall and hit our car on the passenger side. It was enough impact to push the front end of the car over enough to make it so...

We finally bit the bullet and sent in our application to become Foster Parents. Let the fun begin!

We just got back from an AMAZING trip with some of the students from Will's school. This photo reflects what I got from the trip. I am thankful for those that have served & currently serve our country. Not only the men & women, but the husbands, wives. children, mothers, fathers, etc. Without them we would not have our freedom. Thank You! I want to go back, it was simply that cool! It is a trip that everyone should take at least once in their lives. I told Will yesterday, that I actually missed the students & parents that went on the trip. It was simply that great. Let's hope I can go next year!

I do!

I have been so busy as of late. However, here I am on a Friday night at home pondering whether or not I should go to bed. I know, I know how to have fun! It is just that I am so tired lately. I have also been having some back pain that is making it difficult to do anything. Will and I have been doing a lot of talking lately and are now praying about becoming foster parents with the intent to possibly adopt a child that is in the foster care system. I know that it is a difficult process & we are just waiting for God's direction, what ever that may be. Work has been extremely busy & I am loving every minute of it. It has been nice because the days go by much quicker. It is hard to imagine that in a month we will be in Washington DC. I can not wait to go to the Nation's Capital! This is a trip that I have wanted to go on for a very long time & I am finally going. I am very excited. With spring comes softball. Will is coaching the church softball team again this year. I...

I am doing the rooming list for our Washington DC/NY trip and it is hard. There are so many different rooming guidelines. They are dependant on how you pay too. It has been made even more difficult because there are students that have not paid & I don't know if they are going on the trip or not. The rooming list is due tomorrow & I still don't know what I am going to do.

I had a biopsey done on a couple of spots in my mouth. One on my gums & the other on my tongue. Let me tell you it wasn't too bad the first day, but the second day is PAIN!
