One Step Forward and Two Steps Back



 Family movie night continures to be a success! Last week was carmel apples and a special Starbucks Carmel Apple Spice.  Can you guess what the movie was?  The hot Carmel Apple spice drink is soooo good and really easy to make!  Did you know that you can buy Cinnamon Dolce syrup right from Starbucks??  For the recipe...heat apple juice on the stove or in the microwave.  Pour into fuzzy cups, add one teaspoon of dolce sauce and top with a dollop of whipped cream!  YUM!!
I had someone home sick last week...

This guy was so interested in the presidential election!  I love this picture!  I think he should run for president!


The girls could not decide what to be for halloween.  They ended up being a princess ballerina and a princess tap dancer.
















This guy was Willie Wonka and his friend was an Oompa Loompa!

















My mom had surgery last week so I offered to help out and take some of her kids for the day. I sure had my hands full!  I had 7 kids!  Two toddlers, two with ADHD and two teenagers!!  Overall it was a fun day!  I thought it was great practice for my foster care days ahead.

Nothing is happening on the foster care front.  We got word last Tuesday that our clearances were in and that my licensing worker was going to have the supervisor scan in our license and we should have it on Wednesday.  I didn't hear anything from them so I called the office Friday and she wasn't in.  I called again on Monday and she wasn't in.  I called her cell and she told me that she wasn't in the office but would get the license scanned in on Tuesday.  Tuesday she had an emergency and would have to get back with me.  We were approached last Thursday by a friend about taking a placement of a newborn that she was associated with.  I gave her the agency's contact information but never heard another thing.  Still waiting...
