yesterday we signed the legal papers that needed to be signed in order to finish our adoption of our 7 mo. old baby girl.
within 30 days it should be finalized. we decided to not request a hearing. we just want them to sign the paperwork and for this to be done!
*********************************
in other news...i asked Sabrina's mom if she could come over for a couple days. (Sabrina was my first foster child) Her mom said yes! this is the first time in 2 1/2 years that we will see Sabrina without her mom there. that is a big deal. i never wanted to scare her mom off by asking if she could come over by herself but, i figured, "what do i have to loose?" so, she said she is fine with it. unless something changes, we will be picking her up on friday and she will be staying until sunday.
i hope everything goes well. i am nervous :) i am worried she will freak out and want to go home at bed time. i am sure it will be fine, but i just worry i guess.

remember when i had you guys vote on a "hypothetical" name of a foster care book? well, things are moving along and there will be a book authored by me and 13-14 of your other favorite bloggers. I am so excited for it to be done! The stories have been written and now we are editing it!
it really is THE book i was always looking for when i was in the beginning stages of becoming a foster parent. i wanted a book about CURRENT foster cases that told the DETAILS of what it is like to foster. I am so excited to know that a book like that WILL exist VERY soon!!!!

Congrats on all three things. :-) Moving forward and onward.... I do have to say that some times this path is a hard one to take and with our 2 boys adoption I am 2nd guessing if we want to be an open house any longer. Right now we keep things the same but once it is finalized we will make a choice. ~hugs~ You are doing so great hun and you should be soooo proud of yourself. :-)
I have been devouring every foster care experience book I can find... now that we are in the thick of things, I am still in search of more! Can't wait to read it!
Congratulations!
Yay!!! :)
I was just wandering if you have any blogs you can recommend for me that include older foster children (9-14ish) that deal with behaviors or anything?
Me too! Can't wait to read it. Will it be uploadable to my kindle?
