Lando
Yesterday was your Great-Grandma Shirley's birthday. Your GG makes awesome chicken and noodles, which is my favorite dish she makes. She is an amazing person and can't wait to meet you. Happy belated birthday Grandma!!!!
In other news, Lando, I have gone back to school! The students first day was Tuesday and your Mom has realized she isn't in "teaching shape." After sixth hour, I looked at my co-taught K and we both said we were exhausted. Lucky for her, she was done teaching for the day, but I still had one more class period. Don't worry, I made it through the school day. Even better, I was able to get a lot of paperwork done once students left for the day.
In addition to paperwork at school, Lando, I have also begun the paperwork to redo our fingerprints from USCIS. They are only good for 15 months, which means ours will expire in November. So, more paper was done and is ready to be sent out with tomorrow's mail.
Today our case worker from AGCI called with our phone update from July and our August numbers. It was nice to talk with B and catch her up on what has been happening. She went over what happens when we get "THE CALL." Lando, I am praying this happens soon.
Lando, you are probably wanting to know where we are on our wait to see you. So, I will tell you.
For a girl, we are now officially #11. For a boy, we are officially #3 and for siblings we are #6. Even more exciting, when it comes to the boy list, we are actually #1 for a referral of a boy 0-12 months. (After 12 months, up to 24 months, we are #3.) What does this mean? On the girl list, there are 10 families in front of us. A lot of these families are also open to a girl from 0-24 months, but some of the families have made changes to their parameters. On the sibling list, there are 5 families in front of us. Lando, I never thought we would hear of a #1 with our name. It is exciting and nerve wracking at the same time.
