We are on our way!!!!!

So we have finished our foster training and are waiting to take care of some last minute things before we do our homestudy. Charles has decided to get his teaching certification and become a teacher. This will help him with his mission to help kids. We are hoping to have a placement by maybe the end of the summer. It is just amazing to me how God can work in your life even when you think that he has given up on you.
I have this theory. Some call it "the secret". It is basically where you visualize things happening and they actually happen. I am not trying to get all hippie on you or anything but sometimes being relentless will get results. It's not being a pollyanna or anything like that. It is basically hope and faith that get me through any situation. If something bad happens, I cry. I rant. I shake my fist and say "why me?" But then I get up, take a deep breath, and soldier on. God has worked wonders in my life. He has introduced me to some amazing people. He brought me my husband and my wonderful son. He provided a roof over my head and food (sometimes too much) in my belly. With each failure came a new opportunity to succeed.
I can see Charles teaching. I can see Eli starting kindergarten in the fall. And I can see us taking in children for years to come and, hopefully, that faith may rub off on them a little.
Stay tuned, dear readers....the adventure has just begun!
