January 1st

 
Football held no appeal today as the HOGS aren't involved and there is so much to do getting our house ready. Today I painted, moved a desk, moved the china hutch, cleaned glasswear I haven't seen in years...did 3 loads of laundry, vacuumed most of the house, cleaned Sheridan's room, and continued working on emptying our old closet. Putting up this wall decal was the most satisfying thing today...I've seen it there in my mind for a couple months. I love how it looks!

 
We anticipate another home visit or at least some progress in our adoption process in the next week. Our adoption specialist hasn't returned my calls since before Thanksgiving, but tomorrow I have decided to call around her to get some news. Almost 20 months ago we were approved for adoption out of the DHS through The CALL (Children of Arkansas Loved For a Lifetime). The only problem is that we didn't have enough room in our home to bring in a sibling group, much less one more child. Afer 15 months of trying to sell the house, we decided staying in a neighborhood we love would be great and decided to add on. Our additoin is completed, the bunkbeds have been moved to the "boys room" and we're ready to move ahead in the process. This is a God-thing, and we know it won't be a walk in the park. We just KNOW it's what we are to do. I can't wait to see what He has planned for the Rogers in 2013!

We've been the 6 Rogers for awhile now, but now we're ready to become the CRAZY 8!
