Crazy days

Sorry its been a while since I posted, we are very busy. We are in the midst of our adoption training. The classes are really intense as they focus on foster parenting. We have seen some very sad movies about kids who have been abused and neglected. There are some neat people though who are sacrificing to help kids all over. We also have to get CPR and First Aid Training. We are getting CPR certified tonight actually, First Aid will be in a few weeks. We are having a fire inspection to our home this Friday. We installed 5 smoke alarms yesterday and we need 3 CO2 sensors, one for each floor of our home that we will purchase later this week. We also bought 2 fire extinguishers and an escape ladder for the upstairs area. We hope to be through all of the training by the end of October. Thanks again for everyone who helped with our auction and dinner. We are using the money we raised to get us through this training, and the main item is our home study which is $3000. Like the title of this post, we are in the midst of crazy days at the West home!
