Children Services Update: Court decision

Lisa: Well, it's official.  The courts have decided the boys will be moving back with their birth parents.  This is so crazy!!  It seems to us like the birth parents didn't complete all their commitments to their case plan, had tested positive for drugs on occasion, and have been completely rude and unwilling at times to the agency and courts.  I mean a little effort was good enough?  That is F'up!!!  If this is how the court runs things we want no part in it anymore.  We feel used and very hurt that anything we reported in the best interest of the boys were not even considered.  It makes me feel so much better to know the boys will probably be fending for themselves sooner or later and get to watch adult, violent TV shows and eat junk food for their random meals.... NOT!!  I blame the lack of concern from their primary case worker as well.  Nothing we reported were used and basically we were told what to do, even by the birth parents!  No consideration that we are full-time workers.

I am booking a vacation for Aaron and I immediately.  We need to regroup again, and fast!

I want glasses just like Aaron

I finally got my glasses from the store.  I actually got two.  This one is my favorite -- just like Superman's Clark Kent.

All the shopping we did today knocked out my brother.  Time for a nap.

Super Bowl Sunday

We had a fun day today.  First we got to see our birth parents and hang out with our older brothers.  Then we came home and got to watch a football game on TV.  Our foster Mom taught us how to cheer and we love cheering!  We can yell really loud for the team we like and tell them to run fast or that they did a great play.  I got to wear an actual football jersey for our home team, the Cleveland Browns.  Jace got to wear foster Dad's favorite team's jersey, the Pittsburgh Pirates.  Foster Mom had red on for the San Francisco 49ers.  Go team go!! 

We go to dance to some great music and went to sleep a little later than usual.  Lisa said we are great dancers.  We made her happy.  She also said have to wake up early still.  I hope I can remember all the tasks I have to finish before going to school!
