Well, I am back. It was just a short break in order to gather my wits. Thank you for your prayers and for still commenting and checking on me.
THANK YOU TO WHOMEVER DECIDED TO ADD ANOTHER $100 TO OUR CHIP-IN ACCOUNT FOR THE ADOPTION!!!!!
We found a place to live and will move mid-Sept, I got a job and don't have to sub, PandaPop got all his stuff worked out for kicking off the new "year" at church, PandaGirl has three new loose teeth and I am seeing light at the end of this tunnel. ; ) Thank you again for the break and for being such good cyberspace friends!
I think I kinda left off my posting with our excitement over the Olympic opening ceremonies. Well, we had a blast getting a little table all set up in front of the TV with Chinese food for all the festivities. We must have forgotten from years past that the program was sooooo long. We ended at 10:00PM and watched the rest that we DVRd the next day. Good memories made!
A few weeks ago someone blessed PG with this darling "pre-owned" Jeep that really drives! Her Jeep sitting right beside her Daddy's black Jeep is soooooo darn cute!
Praise the Lord and hallelujah-----I got the speech therapy job!!!!!!!!!!
On Friday morning, Aug. 15th at 8:30am I got the call that offered me the full-time position at two different middle schools for the year. I cried when the HR person called me because it was an INSTANT knowledge that our adoption would be paid for and that GOD had completely orchestrated the whole thing! I can say that I don't want to work full-time, but this is a means to an end and that end being to bring our son home from Haiti. THAT keeps me motivated. I am already looking forward to being a SAHM again come the end of May. LOL!
PG making cupcakes in honor of heading off to Kindergarten on Monday.
PandaPop and I celebrated our 16th wedding anniversary on Friday night! Can't believe it's been THAT long! Whew! He dyed his hair HIMSELF while I was gone, because I was really tired of the nasty chartreuse green that was on his head....now THAT is a real man who can color his own hair! LOL!
My sweet baby PandaGirl starts Kindergarten in the morning!!!!!!! She is very excited, but nervous as well. I am glad that I have a full-time job to keep me occupied while she is gone to school. I was in dreamland the other day while on my lunch break of all the wonderful times we had during the two year span of our precious White Swan playgroup. NOTHING will ever replace those memories of watching our little Chinese cuties grow and play together at the park, the mall, holidays and each others' birthdays. All such sweet, sweet blessings. Good times. However, life moves right on along and we are now in a different phase. Can't wait to see and experience all that Kindergarten has to offer! Check back later for a "first day of school" update!

S.G. ran into my bathroom this morning, while getting ready for church, and exclaimed, "I'm going to kindergarten tomorrow!!"
