Sunday

Going back a few days...


Wednesday: we had our Home Study at our home. The social worker came at 2:00 and stayed almost 2 hours. She first talked to the boys and asked them if they want a sister and they both said yes. Then she talked to Darrick and I about our relationship, our parenting ideas, our morals and beliefs. Then she talked to Darrick and I separatly about our own concerns we have and what we think of each other as parents. Then she inspected our whole house. We both felt that it went really well. Darrick and I are both having our medical exams this week and then we will get the rough draft of our home study report-she said it will be 6-7 pages long.

Saturday: Darrick was up bright and early washing the van while I slept in. When he was done we loaded up Lulu to take her to the beach for the first time. We headed to our favorite place-North Shore. It was great weather but as we got closer to the beach we noticed that the waved were pretty big and rough. Lulu loved the water and ran all over. We found a nice spot to sit for awhile until a big wave came up far on the shore and washed us out. Micah got dragged on the rocks with cuts on his legs, our slippers got washed away as well as our suntan lotion bottle.
After we cleaned up and rested we went to church.
Sunday: We just hung out this morning and then drove up to North Shore for lunch. We ate at Cholo's and then got shave ice from the General Store. When we got home Micah played at Jalen's house and the rest of us took naps. When we got up it was time to get ready to bring Darrick to the ship. They have to report tonight because they are getting underway tomorrow for the whole week. They come back on Friday and then he will be home for one more week and then he deploys for 4 months. I can hardly believe it is time for that again. Hopefully it will go quickly.
