OK ladies I'm back to the getting serious to adopt again phase, we have been looking for a bigger house, as well as finding DS a sibling and extending our family and it has been the worst rollercoaster ride for all of us
I recieved a letter in the mail last month saying our home study either needs to be updated ($800.00) or it will expire and we will have to start the whole process over (1200.00) right now we don't have the money since DH has been helping his bio son pay for college tuition, groceries, etc..... I sometimes feel sorry for our baby boy though I babysit throughout the week and on the weekends when I have no kids here DS seems to get depressed all he wants to do is lay on me and call the 2 kids names I watch regularly, doesn't want to eat, play or anything
We were looking into doing fostercare but then I started thinking maybe not such a great idea what if DS gets attached then the kids leave what kind of toll will that take on him?
My son is very sensitive to others, there is this other little girl that comes every once in a while and and when DS doesn't see her for weeks all I here is him calling her name, (every night he asks for the 3 kids at least 100 times before he finally falls asleep!) when they finally do bring her she's all upset because she's not use to being here but DS will walk up and hug her, and give her toys to play with when she cries. I saw this little boy on an adoption website I inquired about him and the social worker called back, said they were going to have a hearing to see if they could find a family member for him first BUT, I should still submit my home study. I feel so overwhelmed like I have 4 months to find a sibling for DS or who knows how long it will be before we are able to complete the home study again and start over I want DS to have a sibling close to his age not be 5-6 years old before we find him a brother or sister
anyone else feel like this before or am I just trying to jump the gun?
