Waiting

Some numbers....

Three weeks of bedtimes past 11pm
Four revisions sent to my mom
Seven profile books needed
23 pages in our profile book
$.29 per page (x 161 pages)= $46.69
$5.99 per portfolio x 7 needed= $41.93
$10.00 off $25.00 at Staples (whoohoo!!)
166 days since we mailed off our initial application
3 major meltdowns in the  last 24 hours
1 huge check- {the largest we've written EVER!}


But after all of that, at 3:00 today, Travis dropped off our seven profiles and our check.


We are officially a 'waiting' family.
