It's been a year since I last blogged. I have been busy-but now I need to write.  To get stress & anxiety off my chest. 

Quick recap of what happened since I last wrote...  Dalton's adoption became final in august of last year.  We celebrated his first birthday early january.  A few days later we got called about Tbug.  He was a month old & lots of sadness had happened in his short life.  We became his foster parents a few days after.  Here we are almost a year later and we are going to court to terminate mom's rights.  And she contests.  We have a jury trial in late January for this case.  We really think she is just doing this because she can, not because she feels for her son.  She has no connection to him at all.  She has not seen him since birth.  I am just so stressed about the what if's & what other little things she can do to get him back because "she can take care of him the best"...   Can I text scream here please......     And on top of that... So adoption is very likely.... but it also will likely take forever to accomplish...  it very likely could take a year and a half until we are able to adopt him...  So that is were we are at with that... kinda crappy.  I am happy he will have a wonderful thanksgiving, christmas & first birthday. Beyond that we will try to live day by day & not worry to much about the future until it comes...
