Last Adoption Class

Today, we headed to our last adoption class.  The focus of this class was on our transition to having an international child.  The class was very enjoyable and we had a good group of parents who kept the class lively.  Several couples had already been through the process and offered their advice.  We both realize that there will be a transitional period with a new child.  After this week, I have no doubt that we can meet this challenge.

I also feel amazingly very well.  Started my physical therapy and even got on the exercise bike.  The pups on the other hand have been (for lack of a better word) a mess.  When we arrived home, Trojan was a sick puppy and it didn't take Mattie long to follow suit.  Poor Mike spent last night in triage tending to me and the pups.  So, it's been a little rough in this house hold.

But as Winston Churchill so elegantly said "A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty."  So, which are we, optimist or pessimist?  I'll answer with a Fight On!  And yes, our child is going to be a big time USC homer.  Is it wrong to teach the fight song before the alphabet?  Now there is a question to ask during one of those adoption classes.
