I love how long the days are in the summertime. Our pup, Hoagie, still needs to be let out around 5:00a and it is so nice out that time of day. Cool, clean, quite...so peaceful. I could stay on the back porch and read, perhaps, but I know, come 3:00pm, I'm gonna wish I had gone back to bed that morning! So, I have yet to take real advantage of the summer morns...Except, I did venture out on a bike ride a few mornings ago. Granted, it had been about 10 years since I rode a bike, but I think I did well (meaning I didn't crash and burn). Of course, my body is also 10 years older and therefore, I had to push the bike part of the way (a wee bit humiliating) but thank goodness not too many folks out at 6:00 in the morning to witness it!
I have been very busy this week with travel. I thought things had slowed down, and they have, but still having lots of calls and bookings. I think we're going to make it through this recession, after all. Plus, I received 2 more online classes to teach and was selected to be on a committee of online teachers that advise students writing their dissertations. I didn't doubt God and he didn't let me down! Plus, He gave us a nice surprise in the mail today...CIS fingerprint appointment! This means we get to go to KC to have our fingerprints ran. If all goes well (and it should), they will grant us permission to adopt. Then all of our paperwork heads to Burundi! I really hope our girl comes home this fall!
