Smooth sailing so far...

Baby K's mom is still NOT pursuing an appeal. She talks to Linda (our caseworker) all the time and is "proud" of her decision. We are thrilled not only for us, but for her. It sounds like she finally may be learning something. We have prayed for this. She has a lot of hurdles to overcome, but maybe, just maybe she is finally really thinking about what she does and the effects it has on others.

Life is going well with both babies. Caleb is really gearing up for school (been playing soccer every day in prep for the year). I am gearing up for the school year...trying to get lesson plans laid out and bookshelves in order. Colin is ready! He has been getting his stuff out to "get ahead"....hello...he is SO fun to teach!

The job thing for Locke is so frustrating. We feel like he MIGHT get an offer, but it just hasn't happened because the ""person hiring just hasn't had time to get things in order. It's his own business so he can delay. He has plenty of work.... BUT we are anxious! It has been a LONG 2010 with no job!!! We don't know if maybe he needs to really start pursuing something else....assuming there is something else...oops...there isn't. It's not like he's quit looking! I know God's timing is perfect, but we are human and have bills to pay. God has been good and we are NOT without anything in any way! Sorry to be a downer today. Lack of sleep for me will do that. Colin woke up last night with a major croup fit. After having him rushed to the hospital by ambulance when he was 3 and spending 2 nights in the hospital it's hard not to get anxious. After doing breathing treatments and getting him relaxed I just watched him breathe ALL night. Now I am tired and cranky and a tad bit negative. I should quit now. God is STILL GOOD!
