Natalie’s birthday is coming up, and of all things she has asked if she can get her last name changed to Knight for her birthday. So I went in to ask the attorney that helped us with the guardianship, and asked about formally adopting her at the same time. We’d never pursued it before because we weren’t sure how her bioparents would react, but the attorney thinks it should be a slam dunk since there’s been no contact for the past 3 years. So we have an appointment to get the adoption process started around the end of the month….The kids had their first snow day (actually an ice day) on Thursday this week. So, e-learning!... Friday was a busy day for Beth, since she had to get Alex to work by 4:00 and Missy to church (Missy was gone all this weekend at ICYC) by 5:30 (which she found out via a phone call at 5:10, was supposed to be 5:00) then load up and haul everything to a craft show in Columbia City for setup, which had to be done before 7:30. Alex wound up having to walk home after he got out of work. Saturday Beth sold soup at the ‘Yuletide Treasures’ craft show in Columbia City. That show was almost an afterthought for her, she signed up a few weeks ago because she had just heard about it and had time available. So we went, and we sold a ton of soup. Brought in $640 in proceeds, which I think is the most ever except for last year’s Wawasee craft show. It was heavily enough trafficked that we sold out of the soala soup (she had brought 13 jars) in about an hour and 45 minutes. Of course, that was one that she had for samples and everyone remarked on how great it smelled as they passed by, whether they stopped or not…. Sunday Natalie invited a friend of hers to church with us.
