How Was Your Day In....

I'm surprised you didn't get any replies. Did you already have your hearing? At our, bparents did not show. It went pretty quick. Bmom's attorney asked for a continuance because bmom was not the; judge denied it. The suprising thing was that the judge thanked us and sid we were doing a wonderful job, and that M really needed us. We just finalized with the same judge, and she was wonderful! Good luck!

I Was Surprised Too. I Felt Really Bad I Didn't Get Not One Reply. I Took It As Noone Knew What I Was Talking About. Congratulations On Your New Life With M. No, The Hearing Will Be In Nov But My Social Worker Said The Adoption Would Be Over By Nov. I Didn't Get It Because I Read That The Permanencey Hearing Should've Happened Sooner. I'm Learning Everyday Something New. It's Been A long AND Hard Road For Us BUT I Know God Is Also With Us. Thank You For Your Reply. Sherrita :)

Hi SRJ, I'm sorry you didn't get more replies to your question. Unfortunately, I don't have an answer for you since I am pretty new to this. May I make a suggestion..........maybe your post will be read by more if you don't capitalize every word. In NO WAY do I mean this to sound snobby, but, for me anyway, it's makes it harder to read for some reason. Again, I hope this does not offend you, I'm just trying to be helpful. Beth bs, 8 fd, 2

I'm not offended. Thanks, Beth I didn't know. I'll stop, it was just so convenient for me (kind of like my trademark). I accept any advice or help. That's what were all here for right? Again, Thanks for your help. Sherrita :)

At my kids permancy heaing, i was able to go in a little earlier and hear a few other cases before ours. Only one of the kids were in our care at the time. Our son was still in another foster home, waiting to join his sister as soon as the plan was moved to adoption. I found the hearing to be bitter-sweet. The b-mom was there with a memory book she had been keeping of the kids and before we went in, she showed it too me, and it was at that time she asked that if she didn't get her kids back, that she wanted them to be with us. When it was our turn before the judge, it was hard to hear this young woman, who had a very unbelievably chaotic childhood herself, beg the judge for more time. When the judge said that it was in the best interest of the kids to be adopted, to see the bmom's face trying to comprehend that fact that she was almost certain to loose her children...it was very difficult to me. I wish I would have been more prepared for the emotions I was going to experience.
