TPR

Has been granted.  We now wait the 20 day appeal period and then begin the adoption ppwk.

wow, wow, wow.  There is too much to say to know what to say at all...

Re: TPR

  • OMG!!!!  I'm glad I decided to swing by this board when I got home from work to see this news!!!  

    TPR is all kinds of complicated and emotional, but you and your kids have been waiting for this and deserve this.  You guys and their bio mom all desperately need to start the process of building a post-foster-care life.  I hope you're allowing yourself to celebrate this step!  

    I wish you a smooth appeal period with no surprises, and then adoption will be clear sailing.  Because, seriously, if I was your caseworker I'd be begging you to take all my kids because you're such an awesome mom.  And I'm quite certain I'd think the same of A too if I "knew" her better.

    It's about to get exciting!!!!

  • I'm also hoping for a smooth appeal period and paperwork completion to make official that which has been true for so long.
