I just reread my last post. Guess I haven't done to well on keeping up on here. I'm still very upset over what happened and still unsure of what I want to do. I did respite care over break for a 1 and 2yr old. It went ok, but honestly I was very glad they weren't staying. I just wasn't into it and very impatiant and for them being in care since March or May they had a lot of habits i would never have allowed to continue.
However it was kind of funny to watch them everytime the cat would walk into the room they would burst into tears, which my cat figured out. So she starts walking through more. We progressed to where she could be in the room as long as she didn't move and by day 5 the little girl at least acted like she may be ok.
On Jan. 11 I took in two boys ages 1 1/2 and 2 1/2. They were leaving with their grandparents, but grandparents couldn't really handle them. They are abused and were neglected and so they are very shy. The 2 1/2 year old (M) is definately out of control. I have already seen some improvement though and that makes me happy. He wasn't sleeping much when he came and now he sleeps all night.
The 1 1/2 year old (E) is cute and awnry as can be. He's been sick a bunch and is finally starting to recover.
My heart isn't into this as much as it was. I really miss the little girl alot. I really want to adopt and I don't seem to be getting any closer to that. I wish I knew the right thing to do.
