Disappointment....

This week has been full of disappointment.  I won't go into all if it but nothing seems to go as it was planned.  I am looking forward to having a great weekend with the kids.  Well one of them anyway.  Although I did get an email from Central Office and it looks as though the adoption will go through in a few weeks after all. YEA!!!!  Although when I have the consent in hand I will feel much better about things. 

We aren't going to California in a few weeks and although Lee is pushing for Kamiah I think we will stay here.  I found somebody to babysit so we can go out that weekend. 

Oh yea another good thing the judge ruled in the Department's favor and against the parents in a court hearing today.  And although we have to wait several months for termination hearing I am fairly certain that the parents rights will be taken away and that is a good thing.

Andrew turned eight yesterday and I am so thankful for him. He is become such a deep thinker and asks these amazing questions that I don't always have the answers to. The meds have helped slow him down but he is still crazy Andrew. We upped the medications and it was like he was on speed. He couldn't sleep and was kind of zombie like. Then there has been a few moments wher

The one you feed...

A few weeks ago Lee text me this story.  One evening, an elderly cherokee brave told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. he said "my son, the battle is between two 'wolves' inside us all. one is evil. it is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. the other is good. it is joy, peace love, hope serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith." the grandson though about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "which wolf wins?..." the old cherokee simply replied, "the one that you feed"  One I have heard 100 times but one that I needed at that moment although I didn't know it.  There have been several situations that have happened these past few weeks and I keep thinking of that story and I have to remind myself which wolf I am feeding.
