I Passed!

Wow, what a feeling! For those of you that don't know, I have been in nursing school for over 3 years and I passed my nursing boards-the first time! Whew. I feel free now. I can finally give my full attention to going to China, actually becoming a nurse, working on some crafting projects, painting the house..... Oh and reading. I can't wait to read actual books by writers who have never heard of Kawasaki's syndrome or the ins and outs of emptying a foley catheter. Although this is not to say that I haven't been reading other books while in nursing school. It just means that I can now enjoy them and not feel like I should be studying or reading something about nursing. Yeah!

So, there's 10 days until we leave for China. Richard's got the flu-103 degree fever, chills, the whole shabang! Did he get his flu shot you ask? No- he hates shots. So now he will be just getting over the flu when we leave for China and with my luck I'll just be getting it! Our big guy has pink eye. Hopefully we won't get that too. We still have to get all of those "like new " bills for our fees in China, finish packing, clean the house, buy a car seat so we can bring Adah home from the airport and just oh so many more things to do!

Here we go

OK, we are now ready to go get Adah. Here is where you will come to get as much info as we have time to provide you. We will try to udate the blog as often as possible, but understand that we will be very busy entertaining Adah and missing Marley. We leave on March 1st and we get Adah on March 4th. We should have plenty of pictures for you then and hope to tell you some stories about what we are up to as well.
