What started as a way to update friends and family of our adoption process has bloomed into a snapshot of our lives as a family of five. We have been blessed through our adoption journey and hope our story of Will growing into our family leads you on your own adoption journey or at least plants a seed....

MOVE
To say our move has been a smooth process is a huge understatement. All in all we had 4 offers on our house, with the first falling through and causing the lovely ex buyers to file a lawsuit against us to recover their earnest $. That was a fun process. We ended up having to give it back to them as we could not have 2 accounts with earnest $ in them and we got another offer. We were planning on giving it back to them after we got another offer, but they got all in a hissy and filed papers. Some people...... Well that is all behind us now and we had a cash offer with no contingencies, so we took it and are leaving in 11 days. The pods we originally wanted to use are not avail, so we are using a we pack the boxes and they load and drive and distribute at the destination. Jeffreys co. is paying for it, so I guess its not so bad. So the packing has begun, calls are starting to be made, and we close on our new home in NC on July 19th. The drive should be quite an adventure with a dog, cat, newts and 3kiddos. We have to take 2 vehicles, so it should be fun caravaning with the kids switching cars when they get on each others nerves, or when mommy needs some quiet time. We aren't sure how we are going to attempt the drive yet, but knowing my hubby, it will be all organized on a spreadsheet for me!
The photo above is Will showing us he is 4 now. Did I tell you the first thing that came out of his mouth when he woke up on his birthday was" Mom, I'm 4 now, I can play soccer" So organized soccer in the Fall for him. We already looked into it for him at the local YMCA. I guess I get to be a soccer mom after all. and continue to be a tennis mom and gymnastics mom....and maybe a swim mom as Jaymie is expressing an interest in being on our subdivision swim team.
