Why I love small towns :-)

So Kev usually leaves at 4:30ish in the morning. This morning, he had to get up obscenely early because there was a worldwide conference call -- generally the eastern hemisphere is the one put out by middle of the night phone calls, but this week they had it in the middle of our night. So he's driving through the county middle of the night ... and here's his story ...

Left home at 2:45 this morning. Got pulled over by a police officer. Officer: "is everything OK, sir" Me: "yes, why?" Officer: "we have our regulars, and we don't normally see your car until quarter to 5" haha!

This is why we love living here ... even the police officers are watching over us, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT! :-)

And yes, I've been blog post deficient. I suspect no one will read this since I haven't posted anything for months and my readership is down to zero lol. I might have to get back to posting. It's been hard though .. so much of what is going on in our family since February involves two lovely little girls who are staying with our family -- however posting photos/info in a public place is not allowed. I will say that there is a court date in June, and whether they stay with us (and their future BEYOND us) is currently resting on that court date. I would covet prayers from those of you that do :-).

Any may I add, just briefly, that I love fostering. Those of you who know that I'm not a "kid" person will laugh at this ... but I am a "parenting" person and these little ones need LOVE and parenting. We're all over that ;-). This can be really, really hard, and I've had moments of frustration (and I suspect June will be the real test) but I'm so glad we're in this place doing this thing.
