Gin's Before and After

"Again you are the motivating factor in my life! I'm not sure if this counts or not, but after reading your challenge and after I had a nightmare last night that the orphanage was going to come and take Bailee back, I've decided that my challenge is completing the Douglas County paperwork to finish the last step in her adoption. I have been really dragging my feet on this, and Tim has been super busy with his new job. It will be a year on the 19th that Bailee was placed in our arms, and I haven't finished this last step. I felt like our county was holding hostage her English birth certificate, and have been bitter at being fingerprinted for the third and fourth time. I also felt that they were just wanting another $200 dollars to add to their banks, since they are only one of two counties in all of Colorado that requires a full re-adoption to get the Colorado birth certificate. I guess my gnashing of teeth needs to stop, and you are the motivation! Thanks for putting a deadline on something I was letting bog me down for a year. Here's to getting it done!!!!PS Carren is being motivated along with me, so you can give yourself a big pat on the back for helping two families get this final step completed!Your forever indebted friend, Ginger"
