First.

Well, our first court date this week is done.

Lizzy's mom had a hearing this morning at 9:30 am. My not so favorite social worker didn't even come, her supervisor did. It was odd because she had made an appt. with mom to do her home study right after court and now all the sudden is on vacation for the next two weeks? Something sounds fishy to me.

Besides that legal dad's visits stayed the same (insert cheer here!) one hour supervised! The lowest you can possibly have. I guess that his lawyer was fighting pretty hard to get him more time, but I had made several calls to Lizzy's lawyer very close to court telling him how she still screams when she sees him so HER lawyer obviously fought hard enough to keep things the way they are. I am very happy about that.

Mom is going to get over night visits after her home study. They are now saying that it will be 2 or 3 weeks before the home study because of this "mysterious vacation" she has all the sudden gone on. I asked how many nights and it sounds like they may start off with one night and if all goes well they will start weekend visits.

They ordered a background check on bio dad who mom is living with along with a psych eval. but no parenting classes or drug testing like the social worker had claimed he had to do last week.


Legal dad is FINALLY being drug tested!!! And he also has to go for a psych eval.

So, for the next 3 weeks everything will stay the same and then we will see what happens.

Now if we can just get thru Wednesday's court date for my 2 little girls.

So glad legal dad's visits were not increased AND that he is being required to have a psych eval. I'm also glad that bio dad is living with bio mom since he has no legal rights but seems to be the one with whom Lizzy is most comfortable. Praying for that whole situation.

Also, will be praying for peace as you face the unknowns with the other 2 girls. I don't know if I could handle the stress of 2 separate cases going on at once!

Tough week for you and the girls. Am curious about this vacation that popped up. Hmmm...

Will keep you in prayer!
