Its been awhile

I didn't realize it has been so long since I had written anything.  A few friends had asked why I hadn't posted anything, I just didn't realize it had been so long.  Lots to say..... We now have Trey living with us and we are moving forward on the adoption.  We actually met with our lawyer on Wednesday.  It should be final somewhere late August or early September.  Motherhood isn't as easy as my mom made it look.  Or maybe I was just an outstanding child that never caused any problems.  We have been trying to get down a schedule.  But with my schedule and Chad's schedule is hard getting down a schedule and still trying to live our lives.  I wish our government would look at adoption a bit more closely and require that businesses give employees time off for adoption like they do for normal childbirth.  No, it should not be 6 weeks, but a week would make a big difference.  Actually when I worked for Chili's they did give time off for adoptions, but they are the only company I have heard of that do such a thing.  I have never heard of another company doing it.  For now we will keep pushing forward.  I think it will be nice when school is out, then we can be focused when school starts again next year.  Trey needs lots of work in school, but Chad and I have made the commitment to see him get caught up.  

I promise to update more often.....but for now, I need to try to get him ready for bed.
