Aiden's caseworker seems excited to learn more about us
& we're excited about Aiden...We'll see. It may be possible; but it still may not work out ............ we're still excited. We'd like to be the one that sticks around ...

Aiden's had 3 placement.... all 3 failed due to temper tantrums/ anger outbursts. We'll see by being homestudied ... if picked we get more detailed information about the the child so as to better understand what he's been through. ...... My biggest question to the therapist is .... With patience, consistency and love will Aiden in time maybe grow out of his anger fits??? Right now he has no physical outbursts I look at that as a good thing. We'll see.

I asked the sw about if we can look at out of state kids & if so whats involved it doesn't seem that bad! We're looking at other states now. sw said she's currently contacting case worker inolved w/ kids....One of the' little boys' John is not an option for us anymore. He doesn't do well w/ dogs or animals says the sw. We we now have 3 sites to help us find kids.

Kids are more limited as to states but details are many.

Our sw is sending our profile to 5 little boys!
These links are from the public website of those 5 little boys. We looked through all the children & picked the ones we would like to learn more about or think they would be a good match...... we found 5!!!
We are ok w/ girls ... the right match just happened to be boys.

I'm not really sure if we will proceed a lot depends on the kids & IF we are the 'right fit'. Our profile was sent out. So far they are presenting one other couple that is interested in this sitluation too... Facilitator is hoping to get a third Acouple We'll see.

I'd say dh is reeeally excited about that situation. So I don't want to close any doors. I'd say he is 90% sure about taking that leap to the sibling group 11/10 year old boy girl. Me at most I feel 40-50% sure it's the right 'fit' ..... it's scary so we wait. Dh did say this situation & the excitement he feels is helping him heal w/ the failed placement... & he says he was always more onboard doing an older adoption IF the situation presented itself. Maybe it has. We'll see I'm not ruling anything out yet. &... ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (Sydangle2) http://conceptionandsomuchmore.com/topic/43406 Thu, 10 Sep 2009 16:08:53 PST http://conceptionandsomuchmore.com/topic/43349/t/Adoption-Situation-UPDATED-9-16-09.html
At the very least we are going to get more nfo from the agency... & based on that & their interest IF they are interested... may very soon go out to visit them in MO.

Just tryin' to make sense of it all.... esp. since there was know warning. In hindsite we can see know it seemed odd how some thing happened ... but dh & I have never been through this before. & we took bmom at her word. She never waivered from her plan. When she spoke to 'others' about us she said we were the parents. Her decision was very sudden & emotional based. She told dh & I over the phone she was crying very hard apoloziing profusely. Saying 'I can't do it I'm soooo very sorry.... 'surprisely I was the strong telling her its ok, It's ok.

Dh was the one who broke down first crying as he fell in love w/ Anjeleesa very hard. It's hard to believe we will never see her again. Bmom said we can go back to the hospital & still 'see' her.

I'll be happy to see my furbabies but I hear one of them now has pnuemonia & almost died when we were gone with the adoption that didn't take- figures- We really are not liking this day at all. bmom decision was very sudden yesterday she gave dh & I an aphagan/ & her stuffed bunny she had as a kid. We had to return that today. It was very difficult.

Since we are doing an independent adoption ours is a little different, we just submitted our application. They will then approve us to join the waiting families list and then we will start the home study and then our paperwork chase.

I'm so excited and can't wait to finally be a mommy!!!!

It's a baby girl due in less than 6 weeks!- We visited emom we hit it off instantly emom said we were so natural/ & genuine. Not 'acting' or trying to put on a show to impress. Emom explained her feelings about the adoption, her reasons for this decision. We saw her 'other' kids they are utterly adorable & sooooooo well behaved. Emom is such a wonderful mom & she loves her kids with her entire heart you can tell that right away. This is a difficult decision but a necessary one she know this.
