~A bit excited~

In mid October we inquired about a sibling group of 2. They are in another state. At that time I was worried we would not be considered because of our location but was told families in other states would be considered. Sometimes there are reasons why a child or children would need to stay in their current state.

I have been waiting to hear more on the sibling group. No emails came and their status had not changed on the site I found their information on. So last night I emailed the notifying party to see if there was more information we could get.

I already got an email back! Just getting a response back is huge. These social workers are so busy that they often times can't return all emails. I was super surprised to hear back so quickly.

This is what I was told:

Yes I have your home study and your family is on the list as a possible resource but right now the judge has ordered that we also prepare the girls for reunification with the father and still  pursue possible adoption resources just in case reunification does not take place. So I have been doing both and I am keeping you guys on the list of resources.

I know this doesn't mean I need to go out shopping for these children and it might not become more than we're a possibility. However, it does give us a little hope and we are excited our home study wasn't just tossed in the trash!

~Alayna Lee Agnes~

My sweet baby girl, Alayna Lee Agnes has turned 3 years old.
Makes me happy and sad all the same time.
She came into this world at just 8 pounds one ounce. Still a small little one about 28 pounds!
 


 
She loves to be silly and has the cutest laugh.

 
She loves her puppy Daisy and posing for pictures.
She loves Minnie Mouse, Strawberry Shortcake, purple, pink,
Let it go movie as she calls it (Frozen).
 
 
She favorite foods are gogurt, cheese, pizza,
and chocolate milk.
She loves candy, chocolate and other sweets too.
She is not a very good eater.

 
Of course she looks a lot like her big sister Maddison!
 
Alayna is 100% a daddy's girl but
no matter what she says she will always be my baby!
