WOW! what a difference 48 hours can make! B is honeymooning GREAT and is super sweet! Very helpful around the house and gets along great with all the kids. Turns out her reason for being removed from the home was real, not made up. Arrangements were made so that the family could still keep all the kids in the home. But B didn't want to go back even though she was very bonded to her foster parents. The young lady who was the instigator of the trouble in the foster home is in the process of being adopted by the foster family. B does NOT get along at all with this young lady and never has. So she doesn't want to go back and mess up the chances of this other girl being able to be adopted.
During church last night a lot of changes were taking place in the hearts of my children. My oldest has been totally against having a child her age in the home.....until last night. She told me on the way home that she would be open to B staying with us longer. So we all talked more today while B was gone and decided we needed to talk to our Bair worker. When I picked up B today after her meeting, I got to talk to our worker and found out what all had transpired. I shared with her what was happening at home. She nearly had to pick herself up off the floor in shock, but said that with B being treatment level and us only a basic level then we would have to do more training. No big deal there! Anyway, to sum things up it looks like a Greater Hand has been involved from the start. If B truly doesn't want to go back to her foster home then she will become part of our family. We will foster to adopt. What about the group of 4 we have inquired about? well, if we get word to go ahead on them, then we will be reclassed as a group home and take them too! Yes, I'm out of my mind.....but I have such peace about all of this and everything is falling into place without any effort from us.....I don't believe in Co-incidence. Her biggest issues are anger management and depression. Nothing we can't handle with the help of a therapist!
