Well, I tried :)

Ooops, there is a very real possibility that we have finished all of our classes.  I have been a slacker, I wanted to post after each class but I have barely posted at all.  The last few classes were so redundant that it was hard to stay awake during them.  Our last one was on Tuesday night.  We talked a lot about how things work with foster, adoption and all that.  A kind of "What to Expect" type of thing.  The rush of emotion is over, the excitement is over, the curiosity is done and now I just feel nothing.  I am not really excited to have a child placed with us yet, we are just not ready.  Our licensing process has been going way too fast despite my efforts to slow it down and it looks like we will be licensed BEFORE I am out of school.  I obviously cannot handle that.  Go figure, the government is going to fast for me, better enjoy it now because it will probably never happen again LOL.  School is really taking most of my thought and energy right now.  We have our State Inspection on Monday so I am trying to get ready for that.  Everybody says it is really easy but I am super nervous, I am that nerd that will forget the easiest things!  This blog will really get more interesting once we start getting kids placed with us.  The main focus for this blog is to inform people of what it is really like.  I wish more people were open to this that have good families.  I understand it is not for everyone, but there are so many little ones that need help!  Ok that came out as a guilt trip and I did not mean it that way at all.

I guess I am just out of things to say at this point about all of it.  I am overwhelmed by how fast they are moving things, the classes weren't helping me in any way there in the end and we just plum aren't ready to take on another child yet and I know once we are certified we are going to start getting calls for these children and I am going to have to say no.    I have asked my worker multiple times that I do not want ANY calls until I am done with school at least so I really hope that that will happen, I am going to have a hard time saying no when they call and have an infant that needs a home, I will probably say yes LOL.  We all have our weaknesses and mine happens to be brand new babies!

Speaking of babies I need to go get mine in bed, sorry I don't have much to say but we were excited we finished our classes and things are getting started.  I guess ready or not here it goes!
