Surprisingly, we slept really, really well! If you ever have the opportunity to stay in a Shilo Inn, do it! You’ll be glad you did!

We headed to the foster home and there she was! She watched us very seriously for awhile…then let us hold her. After the visit from the caseworker I fed her and we played for awhile. We took this video:

Then we headed to Target to pick up a few things we needed immediately for her. Afterwards, we headed up into the Gorge – stopped in Multnomah Falls to get a few things for the boys, and then went to see some old friends from Seminary. After some wonderful fellowship and a meal, we headed back to the foster home. I was able to help get her ready for bed!

She was very happy all day. The only time she cried was when we had to give her some medication.

Tomorrow we have some meetings downtown at the DHS office and then we’ll be back to the foster home. Prayers for those meetings would be appreciated.

Well, it’s late and I’m exhuasted. Eric’s watching CNN with his eyes close 😉 LOL Good night all!
