Making a difference...One Starfish at a time

Our family started fostering back in 2005. We have been blessed to love on many babies. There has been many twists and turns throughout our journey and in December of 2010 we were called for placement of a newborn baby boy. His biological mother worked a case plan for 18 months and after 23 months she surrendered her rights and we adopted 'Sprout' in December of 2012. Our faith has been tried and tested and we are still certain that God is faithful!

Because that's just the way they roll...

If sarcastic had a font...this WHOLE post would be written in THAT FONT!!!

I LOVE the way CPS schedules an impromptu meeting with me then asks me if we'd be willing to take Baby Sister (who STILL needs a blog name).  They ask me to rearrange my schedule to accommodate a newborn.  Dr's appointments, longer visit times to promote bonding, yada yada...

THEN this week, the agency worker is telling me 'Well, it might not even happen'. 
Ok, did I mention that I shopped??? No big deal if it doesn't happen but WHY not WAIT to tell me about it then??  Supposedly THAT is the reason they scheduled the meeting. 

THEN, THEN I called the county worker and she is almost SURE we're getting baby sister.  Can anyone BE more unaware of what's going on?  I feel like the agency works to keep me on my toes.  The county does their best to keep me as informed as I need to be.  Right now, we ARE planning on taking Baby Sister.  Little Mighty has not been feeling well since the weekend and his visit was rescheduled for tomorrow.  He had a cold, an ear infection and high fever.  He is finally looking better and hopefully on the mend.  Bio parents were adamant that I not see one specific Dr in the pediatrician's office.  This HAPPENS to be the Dr that admitted them and obviously they are not happy.  There are 2 Dr's int he practice now that I 'cannot make appointments with'.  Whatever dude.  I am seriously clueless about how this case will end.  The Dr and Barbie, the transporter are the only ones who seem to see these bios for what and who they really are.  It's very hard for me to be impartial.  I see what neglect has done to Little Mighty and it makes me angry with them.
