ADOPTION NEWS!
We are going to court tomorrow! Yeah! We are moving, albeit, slowly, toward adoption of our 1-year-old foster boy, Lil Bit.
The birthmother has signed the paperwork for relinquishment of her parental rights. Everyone except her and the district attorney has signed the agreement for birthmother contact. [With advice from our attorney, we will send pictures and an update every May, and she is allowed a 3 hour visit in August with 30 days written notice. If she defaults the first year, there will be no subsequent visits.]
Hoping that the judge will order the termination of parental rights so Lil Bit’s case will be transferred to the adoption unit.
REUNITED (and it feels so good)
This weekend, I crashed attended the Class of 1980 reunion from my high school. The organizers had opened the reunion to classes of 1978-1982, but I did get a personal invitation from a couple of the organizers. Thanks Brenda and David!
Here’s a picture of us that attended the same school all 12 years – can you find me?
STINKPOT SMIRKS!
Stinkpot’s typical smirk – entered in this week’s IHeart Faces challenge |
If you’ve been following a while, you know that my hubby, Steve, and I are extremely frustrated with potty training our 3-year-old Stinkpot! {he believes potties are for sissies} Just this week, I asked him if he needed to use the potty. He looks at me with his typical smirk and says, {get this} –
“No, I poop in my pants. Ha! Ha!”
This is going to be some journey….
YOU have a great week!
Come back later this week for a great giveaway!
