The Race is Over

There comes a time when tough decisions need to be made. We made one tonight.

We have decided that we are not going to move forward adoption.

Thanks for all the love and support you have shown us through out this time.

Much love,

Heart Attack!

Yesterday evening, as I was sitting peacefully in my home, my doorbell rang. I opened the door and couldn't help but grin from ear to ear.

I found this on my porch:




There were also paper hearts taped to our door and all over our front yard.

Thank you to those who took the time to think of us. It warmed our hearts and made our day.

It's On!

This semester is not as fun as last semester. Part of the reason is my English teacher. I have had this assignment that has been a thorn in my side. I have turned it in 3 times and even enlisted the help of a friend who is an English professor and that version STILL wasn't good enough!!

After my last submission, he graced me with a "C" and said that I have the option of resubmission for a higher grade. A "C"?????? To say I was miffed is putting it mildly.

So, it's on!! Every class I have taken so far, has produced an A. I know I am not stupid. I have written essays and have gotten good grades...ON THE FIRST TRY!! I will get an A!! I guess this is the whole point and all... to make me a better writer and student. I could appreciate the whole "Stand and Deliver" thing if he weren't being such an ass about it.

Happy Groundhog's Day!!

According to Punxsutawney Phil, Spring will be here before we know it. Actually, I am a little disappointed. Snow came to our neck of the woods, thanks to this freak winter storm and I am not ready to let it go!
