"I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautiful tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with grass stains on my shoes from mowing Sister Schenk's lawn. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt form making sandwiches for a sick neighbor's children. I want to be there with a little dirt under my nails from helping weed someone's garden. I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my cheek and the tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived. "

I know! I just read in Brandy's thread that you bought a new one, let's see it Rebecca!!! How soon till you can get out of your apartment? I know you are going to be sad to leave that behind!
I don't have pics now but I will post them after our inspection. The house is super ugly but it is big enough. We needed 5 bedrooms in order to foster so it took us so long to find one. There is a garage that was converted into a family room and J is going to slip it up into some bedrooms. At this point I could care less how ugly the house is there is no one screwing each other above me! I can't stand the apartment!!!!!!!! If I wasn't so fussy about the schools then it would of made it so much easier. Thank you ladies I will share pics asap. It was a foreclosure and it never went on the market. My realtor called the bank so we made an offer before they listed it. I can't wait until the kids play outside again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sounds GREAT Rebecca, I am so happy that you are getting out of that apt!!! I can't wait to see pics!!!
