Day 19 - Tuesday, 07.31.2012 - Happy Birthday, Sweet 14!

She is well beyond her years, and so while I want her enjoy every last bit of her childhood, I know she doesn't want me to baby her...She's very sensitive about that!



Day 18 - , Monday 07.30.2012

Day 17 - 07.29.2012


I know I've got a lot to learn about being a mom, so I'm open to every source!
After this I did a search for foster parent support, and unfortunately, I didn't find much...

 



So things are going well. In fact, tonight we are having a sleepover. Her brother and their cousin are sleeping over. They've been good, so I'm giving them their space - this also means I get my bed back for another night!

Since she got here, I've slept on the couch. My mom took her for a night because I had a 24-hour final...so that night I slept in my bed too....Oh, how I miss it!

But when we find a place to live, she will be getting her own bed....another step toward normalcy...





Day 16 - 07.28.2012 -

Day 15 - 07.27.2012 - Another day off (to take finals!)....

Here goes nothing! My mom is taking her for the day so that I can take my final. It's a 24 hour one, and that's a killer!

Day 14 - Thursday, 07.26.2012 - another beach day??

If we're not house hunting, and the sun comes out, we will go the beach again :) Hopefully, this time a beach day!

Day 13 - 07.25.2012 - Counseling, Court, Hospital, Open House! OH MY!

Day 12 - 07.24.2012 - apartment hunting, mentor time, and hospital with Grandma!

Day 11 - 07.23.2012 - lazy day Monday!

I was up til 8am writing my paper so I slept in, and luckily, so did she!

Then we spent a few hours with a Gossip Girl Marathon (thanks Netflix!)...

Then shopping - we got new dresses for an Open House at a school this week!
