Last weekend, Rob put together the bunk beds. We lamented together that our Foster Licensing Worker hasn’t been in contact with us for ever-so-long. And we decided to tackle the HUGE job of putting the kids’ room together and clearing out my yarn and craft things a little at a time.
So. This afternoon Rob and I were talking and decided that we couldn’t be upset until the room was completely together and we still hadn’t heard from Billie, our Case Worker. I checked my email after that, and Billie had sent some more paperwork for us to fill out. And tonight while Rob was at a meeting, I put bedding on the bunks.
It’s such a conglomeration of different types of bedding. I would never in my right mind put those styles and colors together. But it was with such love that the bedding was given to me by my Grandma. And I couldn’t not use it.
Because frankly I don’t have the money to buy new and “stylish” bedding. And I don’t really think little ones would care. Now if we have teenagers, they might complain. I may take a photo tomorrow.

I’d love to see a picture! I’m so excited you two are getting closer.
And of course, never be afraid to call just to see if there is anything else they need. Sometimes they are so overwhelmed with their cases, things get pushed back, so it is okay to call them and remind them you are ready to help!
