The week to end all weeks

I just received an email.

Our dossier was submitted to the SDA this past Monday (March 16).

I'm in some sort of weird limbo where I'm scared and excited and wanting to scream and cry and who knows what.

I think I'll go paint a room or two. ;)

Paint?! Who could paint at a time like this?! That requires a reasonable amount of concentration - and I for one would NEVER be able to concentrate on ANYTHING!
WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

BTW - I just had flashbacks to a little over a year ago. Weren't you in the middle of a big renovation project then too? Hmmm.... Its interesting how this works with you guys. Buy a house, renovate it, and finish it up RIGHT before you go get the kids! Do you guys live off the stress involved in adopting and renovating a house at the same time? I would be making myself ill with all of this! (HA!) ;)

Diana said...

YEAH!!!! Sounds like you'd better paint fast :-)

WOOHOO!!!! I am so excited for you and know the weird limbo feeling. We are feeling our own, though only in the paperwork stages. I'm praising God with you and will pray He supplies for all your needs. Can't wait to see you with the girls!

WOW! Congratulations!!!!! That's totally awesome and I'm so happy for y'all. Looks like you'll have to update the Week of So Many Ups post, because if this isn't an "up" thing, I don't know what is!

Tami - Mark and Courtney have been that way as long as I've known them - a million projects and other things going on and juggling it all beautifully and gracefully! They're amazing (and so much fun)!
