So Very Close!

Izzy will be home FOREVER in just 2 days 4 hours and 47 minutes

We are ready, I hit a few stress bumps but so far so good! A little time with God reminded me this is his plan! He is an amazing God, he hand picked this match!

Her Room!
Oh her room! It is such a relaxing retreat! I hope she likes it as much as we do. Even Bill likes it and it is girly. It has the things she said she wanted. Carpet, odd thing to ask for, but I guess it might be a luxury we just assume everyone has. A bed. A beach chair, she suggested it be painted on the wall, but it is a real one. A canopy over the bed. Beachy, she has talked about how she likes the beach, but when I asked when was the last time you went, she said, never really. We will fix that pretty fast. She asked for a desk but I told her we will probably not have one because she will have her own space in the art room, and she perked up and was OH REALLY! But homework is done in the dining room where I can keep and eye on you. She laughed and said yeah, I get distracted when doing my homework so that is probably the best thing.

So ready to be parents! More to come!

Single Digits

We are down to 9 days until Izzy comes home. We have so much to do to get ready. Paint and decorate and just get the house ready. Realized this morning I need to go stock her bathroom with all the goodies a girl needs to look her best.
I wanna thank everyone for all the encouraging words. I've been riding on a emotional roller-coaster for a while now, excited, scared, excited, scared, I'm trying not to think too far in future and really scare myself. Day by day is how I'm rolling!

The count down begins!

This was the second best Memorial Day Weekend EVER! #1 was 10 years ago when I got that first email from American Singles...10 years later I spent it with my 2 favorite people in the world. My husband and my daughter!

It is only 15 days until Izzy comes home, I have so much to get done but yet I sit here playing on the computer and watching TV. I'm living up to the norm. Waiting till the last minute to clean and get ready. Heck I know us, if we start now we will just have to clean again!

God is Great!
