Life as Usual

Well, we’re just trucking along over here. Got the kids up this morning, fed and dressed and left the house by 8:30am – actually earlier than we needed to. Had to drop Gracey off with Granny, take Carter to Music Camp and Mathew to the doctor. We’re all back at home now adn will probably spend the afternoon here. Dishes are done. Laundry is done. I’m on top of my game.
I don’t know how long this organization stuff will last but it sure is nice for now.
Please be praying about Wednesday. We have our first hearing in the morning and it is important that birth mom and birth dad be there so they can get served. They need to be there and they need to test positive. I know that is harsh, but I know they are still using and it is in Mathew’s best interest to get this process expedited. Also, I do not want them to have visits with Mathew and if they test positive on Wednesday they probably won’t have visits.
Before I get flamed for wishing bad things on people, understand that I have been down this road before. And understand that if birthmom can’t clean up her act while she is pregnant, she is not going to clean up her act now. Not without professional intervention which she has not had. So the sooner we get this done, the better. I had to watch them take Gracey into their arms, knowing they were not sober the last time around. I hope I don’t have to do that again.
But we will do whatever it takes. And I know God will take care of all the details.
I will definitely keep your family in my prayers, hoping everything works out for the best for baby Issac. He is a DOLL!
