Ok, so, ya ready for some news?  I've definitely been holding out on you!  Guess who's coming back???  Ok, ok, I'll tell you.  Arizona and Lil' Man are coming for the weekend.  I was called last week and asked to do respite and I said yes.  For a few reasons...  One, to see how they are.  Two, so the OTHER people in my house can see how they are.  Three, curiosity.  To be honest I am looking forward to spending the weekend with them and handing them BACK over to the new foster*mom.  This should be interesting...more soon :)

I posted on the other blog...

I spoke to Mami and Papi's family today and found out that HE will be having surgery to remove his adnoids, get tubes and have his tongue clipped. I am SO happy for him. He WILL be a totally different child after that surgery! I also will have them for respite next month for a few days and the following month for a few days. :) Not sure what God has planned. I also start 'working' when my kids go back to school. I will be watching a friends 4 month old SON while she goes back to work as a teacher at my kids school. Only a few days a week but I'll get my 'fix'. We've already had the chance to meet him and he seems like a really good baby. I'm looking forward to it. :) More soon.

I've been thinking about Mami and Papi alot lately. I haven't called their family members to see how they are...yet! Maybe this week. I saw some ADORABLE outfits yesterday and thought of Mami and how cute she'd look in them. Not sure if God has a plan to add them to our family or not. I know HE brought them to us...TWICE. Holding on to the fact that what God has planned is beyond what I could EVER imagine! :)

So, Mami and Papi left yesterday afternoon. The week got kind of messy and went something like this... I got a call for respite from Saturday till Monday. I said yes. On Monday I got a call saying that family member is still in need of respite, can I keep them till Wednesday? I said yes. On Wednesday I got a call saying family member still needs respite till Friday...can I do it? I said yes. Are we seeing a pattern here? It was legit. Mami and Papi were here in May. It was one of those 10pm phone calls and pick up a W*LmaR*t. (Hence, the reason my kids think babies come from there!) After a few days of them here I asked if there were any other family members to take them and they were moved. I have just come to find out that GREAT grandma and GREAT grandpa are certified (foster parents) and have cared for all but 2 of their great grandchildren. These are some AMAZING people!!! Anyway, the babies (ages 11 mo and 2) are home with their family and I am happy for them...Now back to our regularly scheduled programming! :)

Wow. It's Monday and they're still here...shocker!!! LoL :) It seems that they'll be here till Wednesday! Ahh, the joys... I'll tell you all about it when I have the time. Gotta run...I have a nose to wipe!
