I'm off work today to go to the Children's Museum with my favorite 2 and 3 year old. The 3 year old has been asking me to come for months! I can't wait to spend the day playing with them.
The theatre festival wraps up this weekend. We've got a show about adoption on our list for tomorrow. I'm cautiously optimistic and just hope that the storyteller has used positive adoption language and shows adoption in a positive light.
Tonight: Dinner out with my girl Tomorrow: Beach, the DH is hooome! I've dealt with minor disasters while he's been gone, it will be nice to have him share the load Sunday: Hopefully whatever I damn well please

Today: oil change, possibly CFA for lunch. Work this evening, then out to dinner with my mom. Tomorrow: visit with B's BM (and hopefully BF, too), then work in the afternoon. Sunday: church, probably doing some stuff in the yard/house to get ready for our home study next week

Work today--BOO. Tomorrow is a family BBQ day. I'm a little nervous to attend because of some recent events that I won't bore you all with. LOL. And Sunday, hopefully just relaxing at home. DOn't get too many weekends where we can just chill. It seems we're always running around! LOL!
Hubby is spending some time with his mom this weekend so I'm all by myself and I'm kind of excited about that. Really the only thing I'm doing is going to church on Sunday so I'm taking it easy this weekend. And sleep! I really hope my body lets me sleep in tomorrow...I so need it.

Just left the play about adoption. It was wonderful. A man told the story of searching for his birth family. He did a wonderful job describing his feelings about why he had to search. He directly addressed how people asking if his parents are his "real" parents makes him mad. They raised him of course they're his parents!
In the end, he found out his BM had passed away and hadn't told anyone about him, his BF wouldn't respond though he's sure he found him, and he now has a relationship with his three half-siblings that his BM had many years later. I'm convinced his story and his feelings would help anyone on the fence about open adoption see why it is such a great thing.
I'm late, but yesterday all we did was go to Target and then hang out at home and enjoy the beautiful weather. We roasted hot dogs over the fire pit and roasted some marshamallows until 6 year old grabbed the metal stick and burned herself (she's okay - has a small blister on her finger).
Today we went to a small zoo nearby. We hadn't been there in a long time, so it was brand new for the girls. It's really small, but it's a nice little place. We had fun. We're going to one of our favorite restaurants for an early dinner. And then back to work reality tomorrow.
