Wishful Thinking

I have been waiting for the day that I could post we finally received a termination date and would be moving forward. I thought today might be the day that received that but that wasn't the case. When the worker starts the conversation with "Well, more bad news," your stomach twists into knots and your heart sinks. I have never wanted something as badly as I want to be a permanent, forever family. It seems like for every inch we gain we are pushed back a foot. The attorney is unsure of next steps and has pushed our case to the side until she can figure it out. I ask that you send extra prayers for guidance and wisdom for her. Everything is up to her right now and we need her to be working with a clear mind to develop a plan instead of putting us at the bottom of the pile and working on easier cases. 
We are praying for positive news soon but will continue to love on our sweet boy more and more each day. 
This was the extent of our interaction with the Easter Bunny this year :)

776 Days

When you have had your baby for 776 days and you are getting close to a TPR date, the word "setback" is the last thing you want to hear. The worker visited last week and told us the judge will not grant us a TPR date at this time. The worker and cabinet attorney are exploring different avenues that may help move the process along. We need prayers big time! We finally felt that we were getting to a point where we could breathe and we were just coasting until we were given a date but nothing has been that easy. We will continue to trust in God's plan and we know there is a greater reason than we can understand. My sweet boy is definitely worth it!


My sweet boy loves to sit this way. Melts his Mommy's heart!
