Apparently I'm terrible at keeping up at blogging when there is little to report. Although, I guess that makes sense. So, let's catch up.
In the adoption world, not much has happened. Jonathan and I have attended one more adoption orientation, but still love the first one we went to the most. We're considering asking them if any exception will be made for us. If you remember, they require that couples be married for three years. The woman we spoke to did mention that they make exceptions in some cases. We figure having been together for seven years might count for something - even if we have only been married for one (or will have been married for one by the time we're ready to formally apply). I figure we're going to wait to formally apply until I get back from my first summer in grad school. So that's really it on the adoption front. We're pretty boring :)
In the world of other news, my theatre season is over. My students just finished their run of Guys and Dolls and really did a fantastic job. It was really a wonderful experience for me because along with it being a great show, I got to know my students and some of my colleagues better. That has been quite the blessing. But now that it's over - it's time to catch up on grading, sleep, and much needed time just being ourselves.
So that's about it. We're slowly chugging along. There will be much more to report by August when we chose an agency at get the home study under way! Until then, I have a couple of posts up my sleeve.
Hope everybody else is doing well!
