Our night out (for a bit)

We have had a social worker that has come over a few times to help us figure out if their was anything we could do by way of find someone to help us watch Kourtney - there is 1 program available in our state and it has a waiting list that is 8 years long ( and they just had their funding cut so who know what happens next) It is just so frustrating to not be able to go anywhere with the family. It has always been that one of us has to stay home with Kourt while the other goes to the store or Chucky cheese (with the other two kids of course) or well you get the idea... Well she mentioned that our only real option was to ask some responsible young adults that we know if they would be willing to come to our house and learn all of the things that Kourtney needs. You see it is not really HARD to care for her only different and once it is learned it is really not that bad. So I thought I would ask a girl that was in Young Women's while I was a leader. She is just a sweet heart and always so willing to help out, she is so much fun and Dree and Jax both love her. She agreed to come and learn and spent a few days (a few hours each day) observing and then tonight Dan and I went to the mall with no kids. She stayed with Kourtney and then the other 2 went with Uncle Bubby and Aunt Lindsey ( and they had so much fun playing with Addi). It was amazing to be able to go out and even though it wasn't far or terribly exciting it was nice. Thank you Jessica for being so willing to help us out - you are wonderful.
