I am not even sure what I am signing on for - something like 30 blog posts in 30 days in November. Can someone enlighten me? I like the challenge even though I am not sure what it is - perhaps I will google.
This weekend was the final band competition for Rosie - my 17 year old step daughter and sissy extraordinaire to Teamir. He has become quite the trooper. Yes babies rule, but when you are the baby brother to a senior, you spend many hours going from place to place making sure the year really counts. Friday night, we stood with Rosie on the football field at the last home game (senior night). She has grown up so fast. I met her when she was 7. We were awarded custody when she was 12 - I blinked and here we are. I am proud of her.
I have two more weeks before I change jobs. I will still be in the same field, but will be working 25 minutes closer to home and working 4 days...I had a yearning for more mommy time with Teamir and was in the right place at the right time.
Not much more to say except I love the blog community and Gladney family. Who knew that when we traveled to Ethiopia to meet Teamir that we meet people wh would come to mean a lot to us in sharing this journey. We are so happy that the family with whom we shared the Ayat #2 will be coming to our home for Thanksgiving. Three children will be celebrating their first thanksgiving at our home but I am the thankful one, for friends, for answered prayers and for Teamir.
Peace
