So I am happy to add one more thing to our to do list now. As of a couple weeks ago, my husband and I have started training to be a CASA volunteer. CASA volunteers speak for kids that are I guess you could say in a troubled home. We get our cases from the court system, get to know the child and advocate for them. Obviously there's a lot that goes into it and I'm happy to say that we're learning. We have done 2 out of six trainings and I'm doing some of them online. I'd say by next month we'll probably get sworn in and be official. We're so excited and yeah I guess one more thing to add to our to do list and what we can do. Just to update everyone on my roles lol I am a part time EMT, volunteer firefighter, volunteer rescue squad, CPR instructor and now CASA volunteer. I am proud of all of my roles.

I remember running into CASA workers when I worked at a children’s mental hospital. They were good people.

I haven't met a volunteer yet that's not super nice and sweet. We've met the coordinators and I already know the juvenile judge here. We're super excited.
