What happened today during lunch . . .

I've said it before, and I'll say it again.  Jackie is the best Daddy in the whole world!  Today Taylor and I watched a princess movie that had a step-by-step video on how to do the waltz.  We practiced all morning.  As soon as Jackie walked in for lunch, before he could even grab a drink of water, Taylor asked him for a dance.  He could have said, "No, I'm too tired," or "Not now baby, let me cool off first."  But did he? NO!  He said, "absolutely!"  Took off his hat, bowed to the princess, and started dancing away. 

He paitently learned all the steps, and followed along to the music.

He was very proper and bowed to the princess to thank her for the wonderful dance.

He was even willing to go a second round!  He waited while the princess changed dresses and slippers. (Notice how Taylor is even holding up her beautiful gown like all the princess do!)

The smile on her face says it all!!

"I will dance with Cinderella, while she is here in my arms. 

Because I know something the prince never knew,

all too soon the clock will strike Midnight and she'll be gone."

Update on the kiddos progress

We still have not got to visit with Mr C.  He's in a home in Lubbock and we are waiting for the ok to visit him.  The kids are so faithful to pray for him EVERYDAY.  They love him as do we.  Hopefully we will know more soon.  Until then, we will continue praying and believing that God is working.

We are officially in the ADOPTION UNIT!!  We have hired our attorney and begun paperwork!  I got to talk on the phone to our new adoption worker.  She seemed very nice.  She comes for our first visit on April 9th.  Last Easter, we were celebrating the fact we added these new kids and that they were finally safe.  It was one of the sweetest days!  This year, we are celebrating the pending adoption and how the Lord has added to our family greatly the past year!  So far the process has been pretty smooth.  For these three kiddos, the last year has gone pretty smooth.  We have had a great experience with all involved so far!  It has been amazing how God has walked before us in every phase.  Sometimes, we doubted it and were really frustrated.  But in looking back, it's so obvious!

Our adoption worker was very confident that we could easily have the adoption consummated by the end of May!  WHoo-hoo!!!
