In the Past Few Weeks....

There have been some exciting things happening.
My youngest son turned 3 years old!  He had a family birthday party that included our new extended family.  With my Mum getting married, we had a new Uncle to include and a new Auntie with her husband.  There is another Uncle and Auntie too, but they couldn't be here.  We had friends come that have watched our boy grow since birth too.  He's getting so big and growing in ways that we couldn't imagine.  He's amazing.  Considering the rough start he had to his life seeing him doing so well is truly a blessing and just completely amazing!

Then a couple of weeks after that we got a call from our SW.  On her way out, she received a preliminary email about us.  Another SW wondering if we'd be interested in another sibling group.  My husband took the call and told her YES!  So now we're sitting and waiting for another call to let us know whether or not these are the children we need to consider for our family.  There's a new SW that's going to get a call this week to do some investigative work for us. These pins and needles are killing me!

Then it was my birthday.  Yes I'm another year older and surprisingly enough I don't feel it.  I feel younger.  It may be because all my hard work to get in better shape and reverse some of my health issues (not just control them but completely reverse them)is paying off!  My weight is coming down at a nice controlled rate, my diabetes is under control and without insulin anymore! YAY ME!, my transplant is working like it was just put in yesterday and I feel great!  Better than I have in years, and I didn't feel all that bad before!

So my hubby whisked me away for an overnight stay, just the two of us.  It was wonderful.  And this time I didn't feel guilty.  Watching my boys in the window broke my heart but I got over it.  It was just less than 24 hours we were gone and we needed it.  I got spoiled and the boys had a great time with my mum and grandpa.  So everyone was happy.

Just a quick update and I'll write more later.  Hopefully with some adoption news.
