Hey, everyone! i'm back. I had to get my password reset and then i forgot what I changed it to. I just changed it again to something I can actually remember! It's been so long since I've been on. Samantha is doing great! She LOVES first grade, so I'm relieved. She started a week ago. Her teacher seems very nice. She's growing like a weed and is not a little girl anymore.
I am okay. I turned 40 last month and so we went on a cruise with Samantha to celebrate. We had a lot of fun!
We are still trying to adopt through DHS, but nothing to this point. We are both starting to think that it's not meant to be. I'm just not ready to accept that. We had thought about fostering, but talked about it on Sunday and decided it's not right for our family.
I did find out some really bad news yesterday though so my family could use all of the prayer we can get. My dad had been diagnosed with prostate cancer awhile ago, but it was nothing to be worried about. He watched Samantha over the summer and then during the last couple of weeks he started having excruciating back pain. We found out yesterday it's cancer, but probably not related to the prostate cancer, so that means it would have come from somewhere else possibly. They are doing a pet scan this week to try to find out. He was already going to start radiation instead of the hormone shots for the prostate cancer, so I am taking him to meet with that doctor on Thursday. I'm not doing well with the news. I'm very close to my Daddy and he and Samantha adore each other. We are bascially praying for a miracle.
