We moved furniture, took apart and stored the full bed, and vacuumed. Then we set up the new bed that Theron made! Add mattress and sheets and it's ready! Josiah was so excited. He's sleeping in it for the first time tonight. Here's Hannah tucking him in.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6

Josiah in a Loft
Today was a special day, because Hannah and Josiah had both earned their date night with a parent card (part of the Accountable Kids Program) and we did it a little different this time. We rode together (therefore saving gas) to Wendy's and Josiah and I sat at a table in one area of the restaraunt while Hannah and Theron sat at another. When we left there, we rode together to Malibu, got our combined ticket deal, split up the tickets and tokens then went off to our seperate fun. Hannah and Josiah each got special one on one time with one of us and we maybe saved some money. After a busy day at Malibu - riding boats armed with water-squirters, putt-putt, go-carts, and other games, plus a stop at the grocery store, we rested and got a second wind. Theron decided that I had put enough sealer on the first loft bed and wanted to install it in Josiah's room.

Classes and Projects
Theron and I have both completed our CPR/FIRST AID classes and received a certificate. We had a very good and upbeat instructor. She even sang songs and made us sing, too. But you know, those little ditties stick in your head.

Today, after the morning of classes, I dove into a project long overdue. Josiah's bedroom wall was painted in 2007, but never completed. The tired painter left a big blob that was suppose to somehow turn into something, but it stayed the same all these years. Pretty sad. The thought of a home inspection and wanting the room to look appealing to someone new coming in, prompted me to action. Plus, I've been staring at it lately and finally got an idea which Josiah is excited about.

Hannah got a picture of me stirring the paint.

One Down, Two to Go
Homestudies, that is.
Our adoption specialist is a homeschool graduate! What more could you ask for?
Bethany has a children's room with a video player for the kids, too.
Every step is getting us closer.

First Home Study Coming Up
We get to meet our adoption specialist on Thursday and have our first of three home studies - another step in our journey. We are excited.
My fingerprints finally went through. That's good news.
Wish I could tell you more, but that's it for now.
