She's now a TWO-FER!

Well I was in the ballpark of what was going on in the 2 yo little girls case BUT...It turns out that one of the brothers that were supposed to go to another state soon is a SISTER and the workers/relative have decided that she should stay here and be adopted with the 2 yo!  So we got an e-mail yesterday explaining all this and asking us if we would be interested in adopting both girls, a two-fer :)

The sister is 7 (8 in June) and a year ahead of Lexy in school.  Her interests seem to be very similar to Lexy's interests.  There were no concerns listed.  After Mike and I talked it over we asked the girls what they thought about it.  Neither girl seemed to have a problem with adding both girls to our family.  Our main concern was that Lexy would have an issue with someone so close in age to her but she is very excited to have someone to play with!  Lexy has a very laid back personality so we think that is why she would do just fine sharing her home, family, toys, etc. with a sibling close in age.

So today I will tell our worker that we have decided that we would be interested in both sisters and see where it goes from there!!
