Arizona's convolutions and how it's all part of the plan

With one of the highest teen pregnancy rates in the country, one of the highest incidence of meth addiction (& production), and the fewest services for families under pressure, it shouldn't be surprising that there are a ton of foster children in AZ waiting to have "forever families" (though the term kind of makes me wince, it is , after all, my end goal).

Spent today working and didn't make time to jump through the latest DES hoop...calling a child care selection non-profit to get recommendations for the various centers in my area somehow seemed more intimidating than organizing robo-calls to half a million Arizona voters. Well, it's all a process. Maybe tomorrow this will go to the top of the list!

Julie & Julia it's not!

This journey to motherhood is one I hope can be useful to others, as others' blogs on the topic have been to me. So, more like "Watch God Go!" should be the title. I am convinced this will work if I walk each day trusting the process. Stay tuned.
