Two's Company...

My sister, Sara, officially moved out of our house on January 10th. She is now living across town with her long-time boyfriend, Bret.

Sara and I have lived together for 25 years... all but 3 years of Sara's life! A quarter of a decade!

Here's a picture of Sara packing up some of the last of her belongings (see how sad she looks?):



And here is a picture of Bret pretending to comfort her while she pretends to cry:



In actuality, Sara, Bret, Elliot, and I are all quite pleased with the new arrangement. We see each other often, so there hasn't even been much of a chance for us to miss each other.

Because Sara moved out, we had to get our adoption home study updated to reflect the changed circumstances. Our caseworker came to our house and looked around, and asked us a few questions. Now she will correct our paperwork and that new home study will be sent to childrens' caseworkers, allowing us to eventually get matched with a child for adoption.

So many exciting changes!
