Inspections and classes....

have begun...we're in the thick of finishing our certification for foster care. Thus, the reason I haven't been the best blogger these days. Two weeks ago we had an inspection from our agency and ended up with a nice little checklist of all the things we needed to get done before our final inspection...in 6 weeks! Just in time for Christmas. Greg's been busy adding magnetic child locks to our cupboards, I'm ebaying stuff left and right to clear out our "spare" bedroom to make room for bassinets and baby gear. I can see why God usually gives 9 months to a typical couple to get ready :-) Last week we started parenting classes through our agency and it is incredibly informative. I actually am grateful to learn what they are presenting...I think it's not such a bad idea for anyone becoming a parent. We are being taught through "Boy's Town". So, I just wanted to give a little insight into what we are gearing up for and ask for your prayers as we anticipate the light at the end of the tunnel in regards to certification and the arrival of a "chosen" child. (The director of our Foster care agency calls her foster kids "chosen" children-I think that's rather appropriate.)
