You guys… I’m going to be a mom! I’m not pregnant, just exaggerating. The real news is that I’m going to be a godmother, which is almost as awesome. Beth and Jason asked me to accept this great honor as we were cruising around Downtown Disney last weekend, and I was so happy that I nearly burst into tears right in front of Haagen Dazs.
This couple is in the process of adopting from the California Department of Social Services. I’m so impressed that they’ve chosen to adopt older kids who could otherwise face a difficult time finding a good home. They’re deciding between a ten-year-old and a pair of siblings ages two and six, but it’s ultimately up to their social worker to make the call.
As with any undertaking involving the bureaucratic nightmare factory (aka the government) there are a number of hoops they must jump through, but they’re wading through the piles of paperwork and hours of classes with speed and fervor. It’s even going faster than expected. The prospect of having a new generation around is thrilling for all of us, so we’re keeping them bolstered with tons of support.
I’m so excited for them, and about becoming a first-time godmomma!

This is true, but you can’t exactly re-name them once they’re that age. To add to the confusion, there’s already one Jason in that house (who will also be called “Dad”) …Besides, I should save the honor of naming a child after the infamous Rohrblogger for when I have one of my very own, if that ever happens.

Well HELL! If I had known you wanted that position so bad, I could have made you one to my heathens. I can still send them out to visit you if you want

Now seriously, would you really your kids spoiled some more? If so, auntie Carrie is ready any time you want to ship them over.

Picking Auntie Carrie as the Godmomma was the easiest decision in this whole thing!!!!
