The End of the Line

For now we have went as far as we can in the foster parenting line. They have a rule that states recovery must be three continuous years. We understand. Our file will remain with the licenser and if we wish to reapply in the future we don't have to repeat what we have already done.

Our licenser said she was pretty sure that the relative placement was going through though. We kind of already knew that. Been told by enough people that since the little man was already "placed" with us, it would take a lot for them to take him back out of our home. So we are all status quo.

What this means for us is less intrusion than if we got licensed. What it means for the little man is he isn't eligible for all the services, but hopefully enough.

Before we left, the licenser gave us a bunch of clothes, books and quilts for both kids. We are still part of the system.

And tomorrow is visit day. Wonder if it will happen. Guess we'll see in the morning.
