I passed!

Guess who will be having a glass of champagne with dinner tonight?!

I passed my exam!  Hip, hip, hooray!  I'm so excited!

:)

It's such a relief!

And now that I'm winding down with my program, beginning this January, I'm hoping to take on two reading students to tutor on Saturday mornings.  Teaching is something I love (and of course I get to do it everyday at home with our little E, which is such a blessing!) but we want to adopt more children.  And as many of you know, the process is (shall I say...ridiculously!) expensive.  Our current agency is very slow right now, so I'm hoping that the little extra savings I bring in will help us maybe switch to a larger agency that has more placements or possibly adopt internationally?  These are both options we've been thinking about now and for the future.

As I learned on the day that E was placed into our arms, the wait is oh so worth it!  I look forward to the day when God's plan is revealed.

You'll get there. I didn't think we could afford the FIRST one then we found our way to the second and well -- things just bloomed from there.

LOVE the containers; you are so clever to think outside the bag!
