It is hard to believe but Chloe is 18 months old today. She has been home a little over two months and she is just a great addition to our family. The girls slept good last night so I woke up refreshed. We all got up again at 8:30 and then we got ready to go for the day. I took the kids to Gran and Papa's house and then I went to the dentist. They only cleaned the bottom teeth and gums and so I have to go back in 6 weeks to finish. I guess I had a few issues with my gums so they were actually cleaning the gums and it is a little more detailed then going in to get your teeth cleaned. I did get some good news while I was there, our insurance paid more for all the stuff I had done back in November then they thought so I will be getting some money back. That is ALWAYS a good thing. On the note of money I kinda have a prayer request. I mentioned a few days ago that we got some grant money, well, the organization sends the money to our agency and then the agency forwards the money to us but our agency is being difficult. They are saying that the board passed a policy that they cannot accept money on behalf of someone and then disburse it back to the individual. It is just totally absurd! The grant organization also thought it was ridiculous that an adoption agency would not forward money to our family. So they are going to contact AIAA (our agency in MI) to see if they will disburse it for us. I am pretty sure that they will help us but please just pray there is not any more issues. It is a $3,000 grant so we really need the money. Well after the dentist I went to the bank and Wal-Mart and then I went to exercise. It was nice to spend the afternoon by myself. Well I better go. I have to get the kitchen cleaned up. Sorry no pictures of Sam again today.

Oh, hey. Just dropping in to unload the million thoughts going on in my head. I know it's been awhile and once again I am writing this from my phone, so please excuse any mistakes. I am wearing my reading glasses since the last time I posted so maybe writing from my phone won't be as bad as it usually is. I'm a little bit of a mess these days and I am entering the time of the year that is the hardest on me emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. These next few months are filled with dates that broke me. There are dates the next few months that take me back to the darkest days I have experienced. I enter this fight with the demons that seemed to have attached themselves to me 22 years ago. Praise Jesus, He gave me victory from those demons, but this time of year they like to rear their ugly heads and I struggle. Cancer gave me so many wonderful people and experiences that would not be part of who I am now. But cancer and the trauma that followed ...
