Last night I called for information on a 5 bedroom house w/attached apartment. It is out of my price range at this point, but I called my girlfriend in S.C. to put in a good word for me since it is her husband's mother's house. Hopefully they will take pity or I will get some kind of monetary windfall!!

It is so perfect for us. We want Tina to get prepared for independent living a year or so from now and the apartment is so nice. It would keep her with the family yet still responsible for herself. Until she can get out on her own. And then we could rent it. A couple of the bedrooms in the house are 20 x 22!! I could fill that house up with kids! Of course Ed knows that is the plan so he is scared....very scared. Wonder why?! :-) Anyway he won't have to worry about it unless I can get them to reduce the price. And I am not going to worry about it. If it is in God's plan we will get it. If not, I know he will show us the way.

I can't believe you have TV's and VCR's in all the bedrooms. If my daughter read that I would be the meanest mother in the world. Of course I don't let her watch much TV. And she does think I am mean for that! But she is better off that way. She uses her imagination and when she came to us at 10 she could barely read. Now she does nothing but. Wherever she goes she has a book.

Good luck. I am praying you will have a placement soon. Looking for 3, right? Hmmm...now what if it was a family of 5? Bet you'd take them. I would!! :-) Have a great day.
