L. Jr & L

Well almost forgot - had a meeting last week - "Child & Family Team Meeting" for L Jr. & L. Got to meet their bio mom for the 1st time. She's a real winner! I did get the idea from her that she really understands why her children are where they are and that this is the best place for them at this time. This is the first parent we have dealt with that has given me this opinion. The others have always thought their kids should have been home with them and there was no reason they were in foster care. Although, this mom has A LONG ROAD ahead of her to get herself into shape to care for her children, I think she truely is trying. Ok, so I've only met her this one time and don't really know, but that's just the opinion I got from her. We also found out that the kids nationality is not what we were originally told so that leaves some unanswered questions as to how long they will actually be with us. We'll just have to wait and see how the visits go and what we find out at our next meeting in April.
