If you couldn’t tell from the past two days of entries, it’s been a little boring around here. Kim has been up in North Dakota for the past couple of days, and I’ve been fairly busy at work I guess. Did you know that North Dakota is no colder than it is here? I just figured that it would be like highs in the 70s since it’s three states above Missouri, but Kim told me that it was in the 90s yesterday. That’s crazy.

In good news we have officially accepted our new Little Brother and Little Sister, and their mother has accepted us too! The only thing we have to go on are these bios that the case manager writes up about each of them. I’m sure that he or she also wrote up some sort of bio about both us as well. This is what I know about Dominique, he is a 13 year old african american male. He is soft-spoken, outgoing and friendly. He is struggling in school, but enjoyed playing the drums in band before his mother made him quit. He also enjoys sports but is not on any teams. His sister, Bianca, is 10 years old and is also outgoing and kind. She enjoys school and likes to learn, although she has been in trouble for talking too much. She is into girl things like helping to cook, and she really loves to shop. These biographies go on and on about their mother, their younger twin sisters, their home and neighborhood, etc. The really hard part about these is that they use abbreviations in place of everyones name, although I’m not really sure why. Here is an example:

APF is in Kansas City area. P states CL sees APF very little, once every few months, but CL claims he sees APF more often, at least once a month. There has been no response to APF letter at this point.

I’m really curious to see what my bio looks like. It looks as if we’ll meet up with them at their house sometime during the week of July 25th and then we are supposed to see them at least once a week for at least a year but it doesn’t have to stop.

Today I also got word that Greenstreet is definitely in for Pig-Fest! I guess I better come up with a name for this inaguaral event. What do you think about pigfestapallooza? Or maybe pigfestaroo?
