What a Birthday!

Olivia had a great birthday today!

We started the day at IHOP - her favorite restaurant. Got a TON done at school. In the afternoon, one of my two new teaching assistants came in to help out. Then her daughter, a senior this year, came as well. Her daughter is great, wants to go into missions!, and LOVES to babysit! What a God thing, I can definately use more sitters!!! :) My desk and filing cabinet finally came and I started putting my things together there. Then, on the way to pick up her cake and get the others, got a call from our agency. Olivia's subsidy is finally DONE! It is being sent to our lawyer tomorrow and then he will be able to get us a court date!!! We are about 6 weeks or so away from her final adoption!!! Yay! What a gift! Tonight we did cake and ice cream, a little crazy with 7 kids, all current or former foster children from the same agency! She was blessed to receive some very nice gifts.

The only negative today was having to talk to Braeden's day care director. I felt bad approaching her, but she was so understanding, agreeing, and apologetic. Hopefully it won't happen again.

All in all a very great bday for my oldest! :)
