Hello everyone. Today was Natasha's party at the Orphanage for her class/friends. They all seemed to have a blast. I brought balloons from home and we just blew them up. I thought I would run out of air. LOL. We took in pizza, cake, soda pop, & candy. Seemed to be a hit. After the kids ate their pizza and cake they started playing with the balloons. The balloons were everywhere. Then they started trying to play keep away from me. Bob was in the hallway with Natasha's teacher getting all the specifics on her current grade level and capabilities. It was funny because the kids and I started to run around the table. The teacher flew open the door & was about to yell at the kids for running. She got about 3 words out & then noticed that I was the instigator. She smiled and shut the door. LOL. Too funny for me.
We also stopped at the Records Bureau to confirm their agreeing of the judges waiving the 10 day waiting period. From there we went on our hunt for a Notary. For Pete's sake, they are so hard to find over here. We must have stopped at at 1/2 a dozen of them until we found one that was in and willing to Notarize our paperwork.
It is late here and we have court tomorrow. Our appointment isn't until 10:30am, but our facilitator is picking us up at 7:45am. She has to make a stop back at the orphanage and take pictures of other children for another hosting program. So I will leave you this evening with lots of pictures to look at. Some of you will recognize yours.
Shauna Marie. I told you about the raccoon before we left. Shut the garage door at dark time. OK
