Slow.

This week has been so slow...

Our case worker called yesterday and said that she would contact me on Monday with our re-scheduled meeting day. She requested that it be as soon as possible so that we can start visitation and get Little Boy home, soon. Her recommendation is five days of visitation.

Ty asks us every night when his brother is going to come home. I wish I knew.

 He has also been sneaking "Dino" in bed with him (a sweet little lovie that Ty picked out for Little Boy). Ty named the dinosaur, Dino, last week even though I told him Little Boy might want to rename him. Ty responded with, "He doesn't mind mama."

The original homecoming plan was that we would have Little Boy by the end of the month (this was prior to foster mom's vacation/respite home announcement). Even though I would love for us to bring Little Boy home next weekend, I'm building in extra days and preparing myself for the end of the month. I would rather be pleasantly surprised.

I think about my new son constantly and pray that God is holding him close until I can...

  6. I hope he gets to come home to you soon, too, Rebekah. I'm sorry the wait has gotten longer. It must be frustrating and so hard. Hugs.

  7. As someone told me recently, you are one step closer today than yesterday to bringing your child home.:) I know it doesn't make it easier to wait, but praying this time is sweet with Ty and full of peace.
