First Day Of Work in two months....

Well, I'm up early,made coffee, exercised and stretched, then I will start getting ready (Wouldn't want to wake up my prince before 7). I think that 6:15 may have been too early.  I hope this day goes well.  I look forward to seeing my friends/colleagues then pretending that I had a great summer and that I'm beyond thrilled to see everyone and be back at work.  I think this will take a good few weeks of getting used to. I am so happy to be hanging around with Sandi 24/7!  She is the best person ever:):):):):):):)

What will the CCAA do this month??

What will the Chinese Centre of Adoption Authority do this month for Child placements, we will anxiously wait to see??????

2010-2011 School Year

I start the school year tomorrow with mixed emotions.  How long will I teach this year, when will we get our referral? They have me teaching half time and doing Student Services the other half.  A little freaked out about facing the students this year.  Summer was great, but too short.   Hope it does not take to long to get into the groove.

My Awesome Niece Taline

Our niece Taline Blakley has asssisted us in setting up our blog. THANK-YOU!! She is the greatest!!!! Finally after 15.5 years she is almost as tall as me.  Hard to believe as I am 6 feet.  Good luck in grade 10 Teenie.
Love Auntie J and Uncle D.

Finally after 5 years some news from our agency.....

On May 12th, 2010, we received a phone call from Bob at Family Outreach International.  He predicted that we would have our referral in 3-6 months time. 
On August 16th, 2010, we received an email from Family Outreach International, our agency, stating that for those families who have a Log in date of May 19th 2006 that our referral is imminent for September 2010, with plans for travel late November.  Wahoo!! Finally a real sign of life, we wait impatiently for our daughters beautiful picture.  We cannot wait to see her face for the very first time.
