Jacob started second grade today. He was dressed and downstairs at 6:45 am...25 minutes before I told him he had to be downstairs. The best thing was that he brought home NO homework and says he won't for at least a week. I hate when they push too much on the kids too fast. Of course, there were lots of papers for me to fill out...my homework, as Jacob called it.

Tomorrow I start my pre-surgical diet. It is just very bland food like chicken, pasta, pound cake. Enough to keep you pretty full. I have my day planned out though to keep my mind busy and not on the next day when I get to do the dreaded bowel prep, which is worse than the surgery or any pain afterwards itself. I will spare you the details as many have done it; but, my body doesn't tend to take to it very well and it will be a tough night for me.

If you are wondering about any adoption news. Well, there isn't any. We have not heard from the agency. Last month was tough as I wondered why we were not being picked. I think I know why now...God knew I was going to be having surgery and that He would be taking my Grandmother home. The last few weeks have not been conducive to having a newborn; but, I am sure we would have made it work. Now, I have to get my energy back from the surgery and get started on some projects around the house (Shane shudders when I say this as he knows how much work I can come up with...that's a whole other blog). I am praying though that the baby will come soon...I am ready! Please pray for patience.
