Construction and Adoption

This morning I was awoken at 7:20 by the shaking of my house. No, there was not an earthquake in Utah, there was construction right in front of my house. Needless to say, I was up bright and early. Shortly after, there was a knock at my door. The construction people were wondering if I was planning on leaving my house at all today. Hmmm... let me think about this, YES!!! I am praying they finish soon, because I hate construction.
Our case worker for LDS Family called us today. Every time she calls I get pretty excited, secretly hoping that she is calling to tell me that someone has picked us. No, this was not the case again, which is okay. Our former case worker Sara went on maternity leave, and came back to realize she wanted to be a stay at home Mom. So now we have another case worker, Karen, and really she is awesome! She asked us again how things were going, and reminded us to keep spreading the word, so here I am continuing to spread the word. We are still hoping to adopt!!! There is a new website so you can go here and search for our profile (Mike and Emily.) And continue to spread the word! Thanks!

  1. Blah for the construction workers, sheesh! I hope that was only a one day thing!!! And yes absolutely we will keep the word around. It was so so so so good to see you the other day and catch up a bit. You really are the best.

  2. Why did they want to know if you were going to leave your house?!? Construction workers! I have a friend that we were in the same cohort at BYU. They are in the process of trying to adopt and had a feature done on them through the local news where him and his wife live. If you look at my groups on Facebook, they have a "Help Jeremy and Abby Adopt" Group. They are really nice people and might be able to give you some help/advice about getting the word out.

  3. I don't know how you stay so positive! Yes, construction definitely sucks and irritates. You are so nice to look after my little family and I. It's nice to know there's people who really do know how you feel. I appreciate all your comments you leave and all ten finger and toes are crossed your phone call comes soon!!

  4. Hi Emily,

    I need to get your mailing information so that I can send you your "pay it forward" gift that you participated in on my blog back in December. I am back from Africa and I have something fun (I think, anyway), to send you. You can email me at allisoncurtis19@hotmail.com. I hope to hear from you soon.
