Fostering Children

Yesterday we had our home study with Utah Foster Care - yes, we are going to give it a try. We have requested children under Jacob's age that are more likely to become available for adoption. Sometimes we wonder what in the world we are doing this for and what we are really going to be getting ourselves into.

And when Adam gets really busy with work, like he is right now, I do a lot of single parenting - and then I am thankful I only have to deal with 2 by myself.

Disneyworld

Goodbye Charlie

Although the play overtook our lives for a time, it really was so fun to be a part of and Tyson loved it! It was such a boost for his self-esteem and confidence. And he did such a GREAT job! Every night we saw improvement, especially in becoming more comfortable in front of an audience. It was amazing to hear him sing and see his acting/responses become more real. I think I may get stuck becoming a theater mom. Oh boy...
