Change is on the Way...

So last I wrote, I decided to be positive and see if that made any difference...  The next day I got an email from the boys' caseworker saying that there was no new info yet, but the AG's office thought we'd hear something this week.  Thursday...no news.  Friday morning, we got an email saying that the judge has denied foster mom's motion to intervene.  We emailed back to confirm whether or not the boys are ours..and what will happen next.  We are still waiting...  Our fingers are crossed, our prayers are still on our lips, and our hopes are oh so high.  We'll keep you posted.  :)

In the midst of all of this.... tomorrow morning we are taking Hailey to the Melmed center in Phoenix to be evaluated.  We believe that she has an anxiety disorder, and may possibly be on the autism spectrum.  She was rashly diagnosed with ADD a few months ago after one visit and a one page evaluation.  We were sent home with a prescription and a pat on the back.  Tomorrow is our second opinion/more thorough evaluation visit.  We want nothing more than to give her all the tools she needs to be happy, successful and living at her full potential.  She is brilliant, compassionate, hilarious and oh so sweet.  There is no one in the world like her.  Tonight I am battling fears of what tomorrow will bring.  Anything they tell us will just help us.  My head knows that, my heart is trying to catch up.

On top of it all, my little man is sleeping over at a friend's house alone for the first time, my little sister moved away to California tonight and the weight of the world is sitting on my shoulders.  At least the Sun's won :) Lol...

So the theme of the week is change.  New beginnings.  New information.  If I am in the right frame of mind to take it all in, I think that whatever comes our way will be beneficial.  So for now, I'm off to put on my rosy colored glasses, snuggle in for a good night's rest, and start this week off on the right foot.
