Respite placement went well...
We did respite this weekend for an 11 yr old boy. We only accepted it because my son was away and knew we could use his room.
He was really polite and nice too. Lil J loved him and was annoying him all weekend. Z (the 11 yr old) put up with Lil J's nonsense all weekend. It was really sweet
Z was very well behaved at the BBQ wedding that we had on Sat as well.
If there was a possibility that we could "keep" him, I would. But, we just do not have the space. We never intended to put a child with Colin and we don't think it is fair to put an 11 yr old with a 3 yr old and also a newborn in the fall.
I have added some more details on my blog. Overall, it was a good weekend.

Yeah, but we have a 14 yr old, so I knew what I could possibly get LOL. I also knew that even the hardest kid would like video games, their own tv, own PC, etc ----- and we had all those things.
not the best, but in a pinch, you do what you got to do
