Today started out to be such an exciting day because we found out the only thing we are now waiting for is the CCAA to sign off on our papers. Once that is done they will send us our TA. This is great news and perhaps/maybe we will travel around the end of November. It is all becoming so real and I go from being so excited to scared to paniced about the 5 we will leave here.
We also received our VISAS today!!!!!
And then Grace came home with a high fever and other symptoms similar to her sister, Olivia. Olivia is just now getting over the flu.
Fortunately, after our 3 day weekend last week we have a semi-cleared out bedroom to for quaranteen. We decided to move Olivia and Annabel upstairs. They were in a little room off the kitchen - very far the the rest of us. The transfer involved reshelving and paint two closets, moving Grace from her own room to share a room with Amelia and moving Annabel and Olivia to what used to be Grace's room. (confusing I know) I also transfered the children's clothes from summer to winter - CHAOS! DISASTER!
The rooms are almost finished and they turned out really cute as our girls are quiet the decorators! :)
Quinn and Grant will share a room - I hope. I have never had a toddler and a child share a room and I pray it works. The last three days with Grace and Amelia together have been okay, although Amelia is a talker! I have a very dear friend that has promised me for years that it will work - Amy it rest on you! Anyway, we will use the room down by the kitchen for guests and sick children - Gee wanna come stay with us?
So for the next few days, Grace will rest on mattress sitting on what used to be Olivia and Annabel's floor. The guestroom/sick room is our next big project! and the list goes on . . . praying we can finish most before we travel.

I hope everyone gets healthy! Congrats on getting your VISAS & SOON your T.A.!!!
I know that excitement + trepidation! Remember that your God KNOWS all the details!
XO,

Yay!!! This is wonderful news!!! I am so excited for you. Grant will be home for Christmas, yay!!!
wait, wait- is it me?? Am I the Amy?? Did I really get mentioned in the blog?! I am absolutely giddy. (And it is really going to stink if the Amy was Amy G.) But, I do think the sharing room thing will work! It worked here for years. Plus, I'm so excited to see my name (again- how bad is this going to be if I am not the Amy....) that I will come and sing them to sleep if it is not working.
