Rainy Day

It's a gray rainy day. I get up early on Saturdays and head to the gym while Jeremiah and the boys sleep in. I love the growth that is happening all around us. The Publix grocery store is almost finished, the gym is just around the corner from our neighborhood, and CVS is building at the corner. I will no longer have to spend two hours just to get groceries. I was spoiled living off of Gravel Springs Road in Dacula. We were 5 minutes from everything.

Many of you are probably wondering how things are going with our adoption. We are finishing up our application and plan to submit it in June. We are getting our Passport photos today. We won't travel for a long time, but our agency said that we need to go ahead and get our Passports so that we won't be held up for travel waiting on them to arrive. We are mailing out our reference letters today and we'll add those to our application packet once we receive them back from friends and family. We haven't decided on her name yet, but we will share that information sometime down the road.

April 4 - back to blogging

OUR COMPUTER CRASHED! I haven't been able to blog for so long. I'm home today with Parker. He is running a fever and is pretty miserable. Nothing is soothing him, except the pleasure he finds in feeding the dog his snacks. So, for today I'll let him do it since it's the only moment he stops crying.
We have been ever so busy. Preston absolutely loves going to school at Blackshear Baptist in Flowery Branch. His teachers, Ms. Susan and Ms. Melissa, made him breakfast today and he got to wear his PJ's to school. He goes to work with me three days a week, until he gets picked up for preschool. When we were walking in together the other morning he asked, "Mommy, when am I going to be in your class?" It was so sweet.
Parker is non-stop ball of energy. He climbs, jumps off of everything, gets stuck in things, loves to through trash away, cries for his daddy and his favorite food is yogurt. That's Parker in a nutshell. His morning routine is to wake up and run to the fridge for a yogurt. He gets a spoon out and then goes to the table. Just as soon as he finishes he yells out "shoes" and he is standing at the door ready to go to Ms. Crystals. I'm sure he is confused about why I didn't take him there today. He kept going to the door with his shoes and jacket. I know he misses her when he is sick and on the weekends. We are so blessed to have her to care for the boys while we work.
I have to run because Parker has managed to get himself stuck - this time in the wagon.
Until next time,
Tracy

Parker didn't like his beard, and began to scream!
