Just Stroll-ing Along . . .

Our meeting with our new general caseworker last night went really well --- she is very nice, logical, and knowledgeable. She was with us for about 1 1/2 hrs and we went over a lot of things. She recommended some parenting books to us & said she would check in with the adoption assessor for us (our adoption presentation meeting is scheduled for March 1st @ 1 pm) to get us things like photos, more information, etc. We learned a few things, such as if we sign an adoption agreement right away (which is what will happen if the biological family's appeal is overturned), we would be responsible for daycare costs (which is something we aren't 100% about yet) instead of it being covered by Medicaid (which is how it normally works with fostering). All in all, a good meeting, more things to think about, more papers to read.

Brian is sick with a really bad cold, so he's home today. He's supposed to work at Meijer all weekend while I do our respite care, but I don't know if he'll be able to work or not. Poor fella.
