Q&A #154

Praise God, Lera has found a family! If they are "compiling dossier page", how far along is that in the process? Is it far enough to assume things will go well this time? She has been in my heart for so long....I just pray that it works out for that precious girl this time!
Yes, Reece's Rainbow has implemented new guidelines where you can't commit to a child until you are homestudy approved and well into the process, this helps insure that the child WILL be going home to that family. Of course things happen and nothing is 100%, but Reece's Rainbow does everything they can to make the adoption process as easy as possible for families AND get the children home quickly!

I was wondering if sometime you could post a list of the apps your children use to learn. Thanks :)
I have some listed right here. I will get back to my App of the Week soon and post more. I have lots of new ones to talk about! :)

LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! She is so beautiful - what a fun memory and great pics. I am curious - what does Frank think of these pics of his little girl???
I wore my mom's veil to my wedding and it was so special!
LOL He just melts over all his girls! I don't see him letting them get married any time soon though! ;)

She looks just like Kassidy! I'm curious, has Kellsey picked up on the dress-up thing yet?
She wears dresses sometimes, but she pulls her diapers off so she sticks to shorts and capris mostly. She has no interest in playing dress up like Kennedy does. She's definitely not a girly girl!

As jealous as I was that you were out so early, I would be in tears if we were going back tomorrow...we have a month and two days left! We are having such an awesome summer I will be totally bummed to see them go off to school next month! For the first time ever, lol.
I know! I was SO excited to be out in May... not so excited now! LOL I'll be excited again in May though when you all have a month of school left and we're out!

Why does school start so early? My kids go back in September after labour day. Just curious. Sounds like you will have a busy year!
We get out early too... Mid-May... it's always been this way here.

This is Kassidy's last year there isn't it?
Yep! Next year it's off to middle school. *sniff*

Did you have them wearing the same color on purpose the first day of school? How did the little ones, especially Kennedy, handle them going off to school without them? Is Kassidy excited that she's the oldest grade in the school now? Lots of responsibility there. They set the tone for the whole school ;).
No! LOL They chose their own clothes, just happened to be similar colors. :) Keeghan did fine with them going to school. Kellsey was at school all day too so she didn't even notice... Kennedy, well... she did mostly ok. It's going to be an adjustment. Kassidy IS excited to be a 5th grader!!! I remember that feeling, being the oldest on campus... next year it's back to the bottom of the barrel for her. LOL

Oh Renee, where did you get those? We are homeschooling kindergarten too, and it would be great to keep all our stuff in one place. Share the link!
I got them here. There are a TON of different desks for children at great prices! :)

Adorable! There are many schools that sell used desks so if they ever outgrow these it is MUCH cheaper to go with a used one. :-)
Somehow I doubt the schools around here will be doing me any favors any time soon ;). Besides, most of the younger grades around here use tables, not desks. I wanted something that looked really nice anyway, since they're in my living room. :)
