Before we even started the whole process of adoption we knew our home was just not big enough. We checked in our town for a different house but found nothing we liked. On to idea #2 we would take our 1 1/2 storey home and change it into a 2 storey. Taking our top level that only had 2 bedrooms due to sloping ceilings and creating space for 3 bedrooms, one of which will be Julianna's, a walk-in-closet and a bathroom. So 2 weeks ago we started the transformation and ripped the roof off and took it right down to floor level. Of course as soon as you rip your roof off you know it is going to rain and it has off and on for 2 weeks. So we come to the stress of tarps and getting them on and off in the wind and rain. NOT FUN! Then add in a roofer who quits at the last minute and you have entertainment. Fortunately, some very good friends sent over the fellow that has been doing all their reno work and he is due here tomorrow at 5 am to start. See attached pictures to understand a little of the drama in our lives over the past 3 weeks.

Not flesh of my flesh, Nor bone of my bone.
But still miraculously my own,
Never forget for a single minute,
You didn't grow under my heart, but in it.
