Our first sleepover

with the girls is this Wednesday night. We will pick them up in the evening, have dinner, play, get frozen yogurt, watch a movie, and then they will sleep in our house!


I think we have everything we need for the evening: beds, blankets and pillows, car seats, booster seats for the table, Dora bubble bath, no-tears shampoo, Hello Kitty toothbrushes and toothpaste, step stool, DVDs and books...


We've also had a pre-screening interview and home inspection, attended our first foster parent training, filled out countless forms, made appointments for CPR and first aid training, fingerprinting, and on and on. I can hardly eat or sleep, I am so distracted thinking about them. At the same time, I feel such an indescribable peace.


It's good.

I'm excited for your sleepover! But also wanted to point out that the "hello, Kitty" image says "hello, friends" on it. Very fitting.
