a peach of a day
Day 95 of 141 days
46 Days Remain
Well, yesterday was a peach. I had to get fingerprinted at the sherriff's office for foster parenting and immediately following that was dropped off at the doctor's office for a physical. Everyone including the receptionists commented on how long it has been since they have seen me. My doctor, who really is a great lady, then said that I should schedule a mamogram. I replied that I should also floss regularly.
I told her that the day was eventful enough and that I would wait to schedule the mamogram on a day when I could get my teeth cleaned.

We had a great time in Colorado and it was way too short of a vacation, but I am still thankful for the time we got to spend there. One of the great moments was getting to hike the mountains of Green Mountain Falls. Each layer you go up has a waterfall waiting to be discovered. The boys loved it and we went further with them than we've gone before. The wonderful thing I noticed was that I wasn't struggling for breath like in the past. This was one of my goals I set back in January when I started this journey.
I will have to post some pictures later.
These foster parenting classes have us all scared to death. I don't know if one of the families we've befriended will even be back for the next class. I had to go and counsel with a good friend who has been doing foster care for around ten years to get myself back on board. I told her that my heart was definitely big enough, I just wasn't sure if my shoulders were. But, that said I bought a crib today at a sale and I found the most beautiful crib set in Colorado, so I am still walking in faith and relying on the fact that God is in control and not the system.
