Building excitement...

Well, we survived the week with the sweet little girls without any major hitches. The younger one got sick so that made the end of the week interesting. It was a week of lessons learned and preparation for the next stage.

We had our meeting with the caseworker and foster family of the sibling group of three. It went very well, we got to see pictures of the children and learn their names. We are going to meet the children at the foster family's home tomorrow night! We are very excited about that meeting. After that everyone will take the weekend to make final decisions and, if all goes well, Monday we will set up a transition schedule. This means they would come spend a day with us, then they might spend the night, then a weekend, etc... The plan would be for them to be in our home around July 10-11, right after we get back from our vacation. If we proceed with this we have tons of work to do getting a room ready, beds ready, etc... We are excited and I can feel it building by the minute. We are also nervous, just not knowing what to expect. We know that the oldest child, the 6 year old, will be the biggest challenge, but he will also be with us only for a short period.

So, keep praying and I will keep you posted!
