Summer!

It's so lovely outside!!!!! We are planning on seeing our families more this year. We really put travel on hold thinking we would be going out of the country sooner than later. It has been the longest time since we have seen my mom's side of the family and over year since we have seen my hometown and all of my family around there. We are still waiting for our referral and are hopeful we will receive one this year. PATIENCE. Some people have complimented me that I am such a patient person (work, people, customers, and kids). One coworker said to me recently when she gave me a customer service problem to deal with that I have the patience of Job. HAH!!!!! HA!!!!!! HAH!!!!!!! As far as the adoption goes that is not the case - BUT I am trying. School is out for the summer. I am taking a classroom web design class and having fun with that. I am waiting until 2010 to go back to get my MS in Library Science now. There is too much uncertainty with the adoption and there are some other prep classes I would like to take first anyway. Mark was just at a family reunion in West Virginia (I wasn't able to get that time off from work) where his band and cousins played for friends and family there. I can't wait to see the DVD. He's also getting farther with an album he is recording with another progressive rock band. We are going to do more work on the house this summer and fall - especially the front porch and the kitchen cabinets. I need to check on hosting a get together this summer with adoptive families.
