ADOPTION!!!

So, as you all may know, our adoption is officially final! We are very excited about it, and we're going to have a party!

If you haven't seen this service - it's called Paperless Post. You can send very nice invitations out using this service. I made some for the party. I've used eVite before, but I like the delivery of Paperless Post.

Other news - which isn't much:

I had shoulder surgery. Not fun. I'm over the pain, and I'm ready to get back to work. Physical therapy sucks, and I can't even sleep on the side of the bed that I want. Boo...

Lawrence is working hard, and treating me like a baby. He acts like I can't even feed myself... it's cute! He was out with me last week, but now he's back at work. He checks on me often, although I keep telling him I'm fine. I hope he can stop worrying... just for a little.

Iyana is inching closer and closer to graduation: May 18th! She wants to attend UNCC after this. She's interning at a bakery right now, and still working. She even saved her money to get her car fixed (Yaayy)! Now we'll never see her...

Dianna is working on Footloose, the high school musical for NWSA. She's stage tech and lighting. It opens this weekend... I hope I get to see it...

Deven landed the role of Sebastian in The Little Mermaid at impACT Theatre of Gastonia. It just started, and will open in May. Driving back and forth to Gastonia... again.

Ahja went to the JROTC Millitary Ball - and decided she was going to go back to JROTC next year! I know you saw the pictures on Facebook, but here's another...
Contrary to the way she looks in this picture, she had a great time! 

Janiyah has all As on her report card! Her behavior, however... ugh! We're working hard on changing it, letting her know that no one wants to work with an evil know-it-all. Hopefully she's getting the picture. 

Coming up:
The family trip, Homeschool Historical Ball, Deven's birthday, graduation, and when we'll be in Philly again. 

Oh... and if you love yourself, you'll make some of these:
Brownie mix, Oreo cookies, and peanut butter. Pour a little brownie mix in, add the cookie, add a little melted peanut butter, cover with brownie mix. They are DELICIOUS!! 

Alright, that's all for now. I hurt. 

Until next time!
