Do I trust Katelyn?

Ok now she is scaring me, Katelyn told me that she had a dream last night, and she said that we had four babies, and they were all in their swings, and they were all crying at once. She was so frustrated with the noise that she had to go outside to get away from it. I am hoping that she is just so excited that she keeps seeing lots of baby's at once! We all know that mentally I can not handle that. I love my sleep way to much!!!!

Last week was crazy!

Monday was cleaning closets day.
Tuesday was our home study.
Wednesday I spent the whole day with my brother down in Murray talking to his lawyer.
Thursday I went to Delta and back to watch my niece play softball, which by the way she won both games she played, and she hit some amazing balls. Congratulations Megan you did awesome!!
Friday came and I did mostly nothing except go grocery shopping (my poor family has had no food for like two weeks) but all of you know that when you do major grocery shopping it takes like three hours of your day by the time you buy get it all home and put away.
Saturday we had to be at the Energy Solutions Center at nine thirty for Katelyn's competition, stayed there until twelve. Then went to baby Kara's one year old birthday party. Jen my sister came into town and we went to dinner and then back to the competition so Katelyn could dance again. She did an awesome job, and took first on the last dance that she performed. They also did a free dance where all the girls got down on the floor and just danced however they wanted to. She was in heaven!!!
Sunday was finally a kind of relaxing day except the usual breakfast and dinner. Conference was great on Sunday, I feel really enriched and ready to face another six months. It was really weird to see Monson as president but I look forward to the future to see what new guidance he will bring to the church!!
So now I am glad that week is over and hopefully things will slow down now! Probably not but we will see what each new week brings!

Home Study

Well the home study was today, it went really well she was here about three hours, she only spent about 15 minutes looking at the house, and about two and a half hours talking to us at the table. She went through a ton of questions, like how do we discipline, how do we run things in our house on a day to day basis, and what kind of people are we, what are our strengths and our weaknesses. It was crazy, we wrote all this stuff down on paper before, and she was here to actually talk about it with us. I spent so much time on making my house look good, and I cleaned every bit of my house, and that was not really the big focus of her visit today. It was weird, actually, when we left our classes in January, they put so much emphasis on making your house safe, and that was not the big focus today. She did make several comments about how clean my house was, which is a good thing I guess!! I was surprised to hear that she will not have all the paper work done until end of April first of May. She did say that the need for foster care is so great now that they have a rule that you can not have more then two children under the age of two in your home at a time, and caseworkers have been breaking that rule, just to get these kids in a home! How sad is that?
