We Interrupt This Blog....

For some EXTREME cuteness.

Go ahead, say it....

Awwww, so CUTE!

This is my darling niece "Q-Bee", I love how sweet she looks sleeping in the NEW PINK room.

You remember when I redecorated J's old room and moved her into a new room?

Well it was all part of something VERY exciting.

Big Daddy and I have been taking classes to get licensed for Foster Care. Our main goal in doing this was to adopt, but after taking the classes for fostering (in the state of CA you have to get licensed for foster care before you can be cleared for adoption) we decided that we could be a blessing to a foster child too. So we are also considering doing that while we wait for a child to adopt.

Tonight we graduated from our class. A class that frankly EVERY parent should be required to take the second they get pregnant. For. Real.

Anyway we have been getting the house ready for our "inspection" the room was the FUN part. Of course it may all change if we get a boy(s). But it has been fun having it PINK for a little longer too. I was a little sad when J outgrew the pink and requested a green room. Hence the fact we moved her into another room and painted IT green, I just could not get rid of those pink walls yet.

And really...we need some kiddos sleeping in the cuteness of that room full time, no? I mean look at that little piggy tailed darling in that pink bed. I want one or two or three of those...please.

I still haven't figured out how I am going to go about blogging about our life that will now include foster children and children we are in the process of adopting. Obviously their privacy, until they are officially ours, will be paramount. So I will likely be getting very creative.

Who knows how long it will be before we are done jumping through all of the hoops that state requires and we actually start taking in kids, but I have been wanting to share and since we have crossed the first major hurdle by graduating tonight it felt like the right time.

Jordan of course is BEYOND thrilled and has made a request for a little sister or two and THEN we can have some brothers. We told her it didn't reeeeally work like that but we would most certainly TRY. She has been talking none stop about all of her plans for new siblings! We, of course, are excited to be able to make her lifelong dream of siblings come true.

So get ready for some of OUR Dandelion wishes to start coming true...I look forward the sharing the journey with you. And if you could spare a prayer that children who needs us finds their way to us quickly, that would be awesome.
