Guess what? His Birth Father (BF) forgot. He forgot.
I received a call from the Parent Aide that BF forgot it was scheduled for today and wants to reschedule it. I've never heard of a goodbye visit being rescheduled... Technically, they have no rights anymore.
I have to say, when I received the call I was extremely disappointed. I couldn't believe it. How can you just forget that you had your last visit with your son scheduled? I was angry. I was upset. I was sad.
Very upsetting. I guess this just goes to show that the right course for my Little Guy was made and TPR was the right direction.
I know Little Guy doesn't comprehend everything that's going on right now... But I still hurt for him. Because although he doesn't understand now, I'm going to have to explain all of this to him one day. When I finally share his story with him, he will be able to understand all of this. This will always be part of his story. But it doesn't have to be a negative thing or impact Little Guy in a negative way. It is part of his story, but it does not define him or his future.
Soon, we will be able to move forward...
Next Steps Towards Adoption
- Waiting for CPS to hand the case over to the Adoptions Unit. The transfer paperwork was being completed last Friday. Then, we will have an Adoptions Case Manager assigned.
- Waiting for my Foster Care agency to complete the paperwork to get me Certified to Adopt. I completed some paperwork last week, just waiting for them to submit and get it approved.
- Find an Adoption Lawyer. I made a call last week, waiting for a call back.
