All Done

I am only posting to say that I am all done with updating my dossier, and homestudy requirements. The last obstacle will be the social workers visit to the home this monday afternoon. My pets are vaccinated and updated and so are Nathan and I. It felt so good to send my package out this afternoon at the post office. Now is the wait. I should be coming out of IBESR any day now, please pray for my paperwork to have favor with the officials, and for nothing to hinder them. Even if you only pray as you read this, I thank you greatly for standing with me before the lord to petition for this little girl to come home.

Sidetracked

Well this week has flown by with very little homeschooling. It is spring break in our area, but we follow our own schedule so it wasn't suppossed to be a break for us. I have been updating all my adoption papers, in preperation for the social workers visit on monday. I also have to send a bunch of stuff to immigration to try and speed up the visa process. You used to do this in Haiti when you went to pick up your kid, but things have gotten dangerous in that part of the country so we are applying stateside.

Today one of my cyber friends sidetracked me into going to the park. It was a little windy at first, but it warmed up nicely, and the boys had a blast playing SCA (squirrel catching association). They ran all through the woods by the river trying to catch fat, semi domesticated squirrels. They will sleep good tonight.

Right before our eyes

The scariest thing happened to us on the way to chess club this afternoon. Directly in front of us, a car coming the opposite way hit an older man on a motorcycle/scooter thing. The lady that hit him and her passenger jumped out and called the ambulance. My kids were telling me to go help him breathe, I know CPR. I just sat in my car and watched him roll around on the ground, then get still. I think he was in shock. Oh in case your wondering why I just sat there, it was because so many people were already there, and I heard them telling him to lay still. I would've helped if I could have been of any use. The ambulance was literally there in under 3 minutes, and an unmarked police car was immediately on the scene. I have never witnessed an accident that close up before, Evan actually saw the car hit him as he was changing lanes or coming out of a side street. I only saw the man and bike sliding in the road. I really think he was going to be Okay, because he pretty much slid out instead of getting his body hit.

In other news my husband is heading off to the UK soon to do some training with the British military. He invited me along but I said no, and no I'm not crazy. Traveling with him on business is kinda frustrating, he is totally busy and wrapped up in what needs to be done, he's up early and to bed late meeting with people, and I sit around the dinner table listening to other peoples conversations because I usually can't follow the technical jargon. Several people said I should spend my days sightseeing by myself, but that seems lonely to me. I would hate to see all that cool stuff w/out him, so alas I am staying home.
