We got some great news this last week!! We have the official word from the people who give the official word that we have an adoption date...for all 5!! September 4th at 10:30am at the Mesa court house. We are so excited!! We also have some other great news...Shea has been taking the lessons and she will be baptized September 6th we don't have the time yet. We will be calling the temple this week to see about getting a sealing date soon also!!
What a journey this has been. I know we aren't done but we have had an awesome start. We have had 110% support from everyone around us. All the kids have been so accepted into our families. They have made great friends at school and church. We have made great friends through our foster care agency. Best of all we have been able, after all this time, to feel how amazing it is to have a family of our own...little people to teach, to learn from and to love so deaply that it cannot be explained - and only known through first hand experience - I know this because I love all little children and we've had alot of kids in our home for day care and we have lots of nieces and nephews. Love them all forever!!.....Now we are able to see a glimps of how much Heavenly Father loves us all because we are His children.

Cereal Lover!
I don't have any pictures for this entry but I have to tell this hilarious story or thing that happened yesterday......well it happens often. I know that this is not rare I know that this girl is not so far above average that she is the only one to do this but to see it first hand....I'll tell you this love bug is too much for me!!!!
Yesterday I was in the kitchen making dinner after church. The kids usually come upstairs and play around while I'm getting it ready. Samantha loves to get into the cupboards and get stuff out. Sometimes it is OK and sometimes I tell her to get out. Well I let her and she looked all over the cupboards and opened the one that I put all my big bowls. She picks out the small Tupperware bowl you know the one its not the big one with the thumb hole but it was the one just smaller than that one. She got it and then took it to the table where sometimes we leave out the cereal....it was out so the next thing I heard was cereal being poured...I thought great we're gonna have to pick up cereal off the floor. It was my lucky day. Samantha had poured most of the box of cereal perfectly into this big bowl. I know it may by one of those stories that you had to be there but...she is so small and it was so funny the cereal box is as big as she is!!!! Her other favorite thing to do with cereal is to pick up the bowl and drink the milk out of it. These things are so funny to me because she is so small and she is starting to do such big girl things!!!
We Love Her!!!!!
