The baby

The little guy (nicknamed Booger, just for fun since JJ is Goober) is just so precious! He's gaining weight now that he's eating at level and the crying turned into constant smiles! Of course we're all attached! Anyone would be! It will be so hard to see him go if the judge decides he will go back to mom next week. But, we knew this getting in, and there will be more kids. We're going to get attached if we are to be the home life that DSS wants for these kids! Until the next child is placed with our family I will just focus on helping DSS teach the Lifebooks class next month as well as looking into "field trip" opportunities like the one to Medieval Times that I passed the info to our Social Worker on. It's so rewarding, like buying Day his 1st professional pics last month and planning his 1st Easter basket in April! I love these kids and I know we are blessed to have this opportunity to share our home and lives with them!
