Happy news and other ramblings....

So I'm pretty excited today for our friends Ashley and Marty! Ya'll remember a while back when we watched the little baby for a weekend for some fellow foster parents... well Monday the little guys birth mommy made the tough choice to ask Ashley and Marty (Tae's foster mommy and daddy) if they would adopt her son! Ashley and Marty have had Tae since he was 3 days old. He is now like 9 or 10 months old... actually I'm not really for definitely sure how old he is... hmm it seems like he was born when it was warmer.... anyways, they have had him for a long long time and now it looks like they are going to get to have him for keeps! I'm so happy for them! Please keep them in your prayers and also birth mommy because I'm sure that has to be a devastating decision to make to realize that you are not the right person to raise your child at this point in his or her life. Ashley asked specifically that we pray for birth mommy that someday she might actually be a positive part of Tae's life at some point in the future....

not much else really going on around here.. life is just plugging along kind of uneventfully really... I'm looking forward to the cousin's weekend coming up... and the Women of Faith trip in April... I think I'm also hitching a ride to Florida with Missy and her family for Spring Break... lol

I'm almost through the entire Twilight Saga for the second time and thinking about reading it again… I’ve been reading it more slowly this time… just absorbing all my favorite scenes… it’s really just basically a very sweet love story with a weird twist... I’m telling you what… it’s ridiculous how much I love these books… on Facebook there are support groups for people like me, so I’ve been reading those message boards… lol… and some people are way more obsessed than I am even… it’s definitely a phenomenon… this is also my personality… when I really like something I go overboard for a little while… I was like this a little bit, really fractionally comparatively, after the first time I saw Moulin Rouge… I think I watched that movie like 5 or 6 times the first weekend I rented it….

Ok moving on… I could literally type about that for pages but I won’t… lol

American Idol… what are your thoughts? I was telling someone today here at work that it’s still sort of at that “telethon-esque” stage for me… with the bad singers and the bad song choices, it reminds me of a telethon a little bit… but then the few that are good are really good… after last week, I’ve been saying that I think Danny will win, and while he is still one of my favs, that little girl that made it through last night… dang she’s way talented and the dude with the hair is pretty brilliant too… although I have to agree with Simon, the dude with the hair that sang the Rolling Stones song… parts of it were weird and parts just flat out rocked. I think it’s going to be another year of excellent guys… one thing about the dude with the hair though… umm he probly spends more time in front of the mirror on his hair than I do and that’s just wrong… lol… his hair bugs me… but he can wail for sure… umm there was another girl that I really liked this week that didn’t get through so I’m rooting for her on the wild card… the one that sang Betty Davis Eyes… I do not know their names at this point… lol… I stopped taking notes! Haha… but anyway, her voice was very unique…

Well anyways… I better go… ya’ll have a happy blessed weekend! God Bless You
