Not much new to report! We wait and wait :) The week after the referrals came out brought some much needed relief...back to normal stuff, lunches, dinner, laundry and work! The last week has been kinda tough. It is like building anticipation and stress waiting for the end of the month to come. It is kinda like you are in limbo....your life goes back to the same old stuff but you are still stuck waiting. It is so hard to explain. I have read many peoples blogs and they say they blog to keep people informed but also as an emotional release. It is like baring a little piece of your soul everytime you post a message, you are letting people into a very private place but at the same time it is a release. You let a little bit of anguish go each time.
OK so enough of that. As you can tell it has been a week!
Jim just got back from Mexico again. He was there on his mission trip to do cleft lip/palate surgeries on some much deserving kids! They did 40 surgeries in two days and worked each day from 7am-10pm. He was tired but it is a trip that is well worth it. You just think of how many kids lives you have completely changed in two short days. These kids can't eat or speak properly or at all and in one surgery so much changes for them! They still have a long road ahead of them and probably more surgeries but they are given a real chance at a "normal" life. As Ainsley calls them, the kids with "ouwies" on their lips :)
Halloween is coming up quick. Ainsley wants to be a cowgirl and the dogs have their costumes all ready. Ainsley wanted them to be horses, so, Shiloh is a horse and Domino will be the sheriff. I will post pictures :)
