Best Morning Ever

Phillip and I took our CPR/First Aid Training class today. The class was supposed the be NINE hours!! I thought it was supposed to be four. But we finished in just under six. Six hours of lame jokes, scattered cuss words, repeated information, stupid questions, hacking coughs, and ridiculously horrible videos. The "instructor" looked and sounded like she has been smoking about two packs a day since she was nine. Now this next comment is really mean and not very humble so just be warned. In this last month of training to become foster parents, we have been around more ignorant, uneducated people than ever before in our lives. And we have had a really hard time keeping it together sometimes. Just for example, in one of our classes, someone asked if you have to have a G.E.D. to become a foster parent. The answer, surprisingly enough, is NO. No, but you do have to take a G.E.D. equivalency test. Who knew?! So, there you go. There's a glimpse into our last month or so. I realize this is all very mean-spirited.

But the good news is WE ARE DONE!!! We'll have our home study this week coming up and then we'll be on our way to having a little crying, pooping, spitting up bundle of joy. And I have no doubt that this last month will end up being well worth it.
