The kids

I am sure there have been a few curious readers who have wondered about how the kids are doing or even a few who may have missed our previous blogs about what happened. So here goes, The beginning of April Cale and I flew the kids down to Cali to live with their grandma, hardest thing I have ever done in my life so far. Anyway for some reason I have had them on my mind lately, so maybe that's a hint that I should update you guys as to how they are doing. So to answer some questions that we have gotten, no we have not talked to or seen them since we dropped them off, its better right now for them as well as us if we don't have any contact with them we are hoping to be able to send them little cards and what not occasionally sometime in the future maybe get pics from them but that is all up to their grandma, though she did talk about us coming down to visit occasionally eventually. We do have some contact with her through email. She has told us that the kids are doing pretty good, they have had some rough moments, I am sure they have, but that overall they are adjusting. I was thinking about it the other day and while it seems like it has been such along time it has really only been 3 months, it was this time last year we were getting ready for them. So anyway the kids are doing good overall. I am going to go ahead and post our family pic with the kids on here, I only ask that no one take it and copy and paste it. The other question that we have been getting alot is do we plan to keep doing this. The answer is yes we do in fact this time it will be much easier to get placements because Cale no longer works for the state and that allows us to get kids from Eastern Washington. In fact we are having our inspection in July so we can start doing respite again. We had originally decided that we were going to give it a year before we even talked about babies and what not. Well we made it almost 3 months all I can say is its all Jon and Treva's fault for having such cute kids. We went over to their house just after they had had their 2nd baby and our resolve melted. So who knows what well happen or when but when /if it does we will welcome it whether its getting pregnant after almost 11 years or getting a baby from the state. We are just putting our trust in the Lord and not worrying about it. So we will see what the future holds for us.
