Edward, Chester and Bubba

We have named the Geckos in the house - Edward (since Twilight - we name everyone Edward), Chester and Bubba - we thought maybe one was a girl....but girls NEVER eat bugs - so we are sticking with the boys!! We love our Gecko friends even though from time to time - they sprint out in front of me when I walk in a room or turn on a light - Chester is quite small - maybe a "baby" but we always greet them with smiles and pray they eat ants too!!!

Well, today is Friday May 15th and we have a big day ahead of us - we will be meeting with the social worker at the orphanage to take our girl home with us!!! Our fostering period offically begins and we are hoping to get our two site visits in before the next consejo!!

We are also going to Mi Familia (adoption agency) to give them some paperwork - just hope that everyone who is suppose to be there, is there and that all goes smoothly!!

I think it has been good to get a little settled before our sweet girl comes home with us - It is a big adjustment for us all - In Nicaragua, the most time I have ever spent with Martita is a week - so I cannot imagine what she must be thinking/feeling. We will actually have her FOREVER after today!!! AMAZING and UNBELIEVABLE!!!

Trying to perfect the sleeping arrangement with the widow AC - I turn it on about an hour before I go to bed and it's nice and cool in my room - but then after a couple of hours of sleep - I'm cold, so I turn it off, then a couple of hours later, I turn it on because I'm hot - HELP!!! Tonight I will try the lowest power to see if that works - I really like the noise it makes as well as, the cool air!! These are the big decisions I am making in Nicaragua!!! :D

Love to you all - Blessings and talk to you tomorrow (it's my birthday) 8)
