Just waiting and wondering

So like I stated in my last entry our dossier paperwork is gone and now we are waiting. So far it hasn't been long so I am still pretty sane, well I am at least just as insane as I was when we started so that is a good thing! There have been a lot of different things happening with our program and when I think about those I get anxious and a little nervous and just want to go over to get our child just so I know that everything is okay! It breaks my heart to hear of families coming back home without their child, but some of these families have such a good faithful outlook that I am encouraged by them and the way they face their disappointment. I have been substitute teaching and it keeps me busy and reminds me almost daily the many things Jeff and I have to look forward to. For example, today I subbed for a first grade class and as luck would have it a front moved through our area and brought with it freezing rain and sleet, not quite as fun as snow, but the kids were so excited about it they could hardly stay in their seats! Okay, so maybe winter weather gets me a little excited too, but having a child to share that excitement with, OOOOHHHH WHAT FUN!! Although after the wonderful ice storm we had last year and going 14 days without power I will say the white fluffy kind of winter weather is much more to my liking! Well, I have rambled on long enough! And for some of the bloggers out there that were wondering about being too early to make Christmas cookies...NEVER, I managed to get two batches of some of mine done already! Have a good Christmas Season!
