Girlie
8:49 PM
Is bubbling over with happiness more and more, but does still show aggression - especially at day care where they can't watch her as well as we can, and she has more "targets" there. :(
IS most likely remaining here, but they are still looking at discussing relative options with mom.
Received a clothing and equipment voucher today, although they were written expressly to KMart. We NEED a crib, mattress, and really a car seat that fits a little better since she's so small, but $130 of clothes at KMart???? I'm not sure how that will go...
Went for a check up last Thurs and although I told the cw taking her that her eyes had been crusty every morning for almost a week they diagnosed NOTHING. Over the weekend she ran 101-103 fevers with non-stop Motrin and Tylenol. Had to take the day off Monday, the first full week of school, and spent almost two hours in the Drs office for her appt. She was diagnosed with both sinus and ear infections and is on antibiotics.

About Me
I am a single mom to four amazing kids; each of whom just happen to have been adopted. The first three were adopted through foster care, and we just completed an international adoption from Haiti. Our family has grown through adoption and I am all the more blessed to know each of my children. I worship a mighty God, teach Special Ed, love bargains, and am inspired by Pinterest... come along with us for the ride!

What you should know about HIV
-HIV can NOT be spread through casual/household contact. HIV is not spread through hugging, kissing, shaking hands, sharing toys, sneezing, coughing, sharing food, sharing drinks, bathing, swimming or any other casual way. It has been proven that HIV and AIDS can only be spread through sexual contact, birth, breastfeeding and blood to blood contact (such as sharing needles).
- HIV is now considered a chronic but manageable disease. With treatment, people who are HIV+ can live indefinitely without developing AIDS and can live long and full lives.
- People who are HIV+ deserve to be treated with love, respect, support and acceptance as all people do.
Additional information on transmission of HIV can be found on the Center for Disease Control website: http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/resources

Little Did I Know
Little did I know that the road would be so rocky
Little did I know that the trip would take so long
Little did I know that my heart could hurt so much
Little did I know that God is never wrong
Little did I know that love could be so powerful
Little did I know that a dream so far could go
Little did I know that God would place the right ones
Little did I know that my heart, so large, could grow
Little did I know that a dream has it’s own timing
Little did I know that this day would finally come
Little did I know that four souls would be sent to guide me
Little did I know that they would choose to call me mom
But God knew all along and He had a plan to follow
God knew all along that my dream would soon come true
God knew all along that we five should be together
God knew all along that I’d share it all with you

I can't believe 3 out of your 4 munchkins are on antibiotics! You sound so....sane! So calm! I am impressed. :)
Could you buy the car seat at K-mart, since it's a clothing and "equipment" voucher? Or is that a no-go?
I really have the adoption bug right now, and reading your posts makes it more intense!
