Not much happening (adoption-wise that is)

I haven't posted for awhile. We're in the waiting phase so that's just what we're doing. Meanwhile I have started a new job. I'm in training to be a work-from-home customer service agent. I will be mainly taking orders for infomercial products. I will set my own schedule so can work when I am available. I heard about this from my brother-in-law Jim's cousin Shannen (Jim=the one married to my sister not Gerry's brother) when I was visiting with her at Kyle's birthday party. Her boyfriend is a supervisor (PAL, performance assistance liason) for the company I will be contracted to work for. I'm really excited about this because I have been looking for something that I can do from home!

We're in the midst of a million summer activities. Grace has been to Bible School at the church down the street. It was her first school/daycare type activity being away from us on her own (other than with friends or family) so Mama came home & had a good long cry the first day I dropped her off. She LOVED it! She couldn't wait to go back & now that it's over she says "Hi Bible School" every time we drive by the church (like I said it's just down the street so that at least once a day!) We have been to the zoo, swimming, library, movies, fountains, taking walks, and just playing outside enjoying summer.

Gerry & I had a discussion last night about a little boy on the WC list. He has birthmarks that cover a large portion of his body. I'm sure with my experience in the dermatology world we could easily find a specialist and have it treated. He is only 21 days younger than Grace so we realized that he is too close to Grace's age. Also we really are planning on a girl. Maybe another adoption after this is done for a boy but definitely a girl this time.
