Saturday morning is going to be our first class!! I can't tell you how excited I am!!! It sucked because we were originally told that our classes start May 5, so I was super bummed when I found out I had to wait even longer. I am not really sure what to expect or what they talk about. That's probably why I can't wait. :) I am also excited just to talk with other cute couples about adoption and what all their stories are. This has been such an adventure already, and we are just getting to the fun stuff!! I got an email yesterday from our social worker, she received all four of our recommendation letters!! YAY!! She said they were all "glowing and very positive" So glad they didn't talk trash. jk.....but seriously. And just so I can remember who we had write letters, this is who we had. They only allowed us to have one family member...lame. So we had our good friends who live by us write one, Jacy and Todd Serr. We had Kent's mom write one because she sees us the most and probably knows Kent the best. We had my best friend Kelly McGraw, who I have known since 7th grade write one. She knows me the best! Then we wanted to do a co-worker, but all Kent's co-workers are all family haha. So then we were thinking for me....We both really wanted to do my old boss at Great Basin Engineering, Brett Blechert. He was like the grumpy, mean guy who is just like my dad. But the most caring, amazing person you'd ever meet. He passed away almost a year ago. I miss him dearly, its weird. You wouldn't ever know how much he meant to me. So sadly, we couldn't have him write one. So we had a lady, Kari Gibson, that I work with write the other one. She actually taught Kent in pre-school (and I think Kindergarten, cant remember now haha). She's amazing and couldn't be happier to have her write the other one.
