Well, we are already licensed foster care parents in our state, so that is a risk we have already been thinking and talking about.
I'm so frustrated right now. Mostly, because the attorney just quit talking to us about what was/is going on. She had told me in person she was doing the petition for publication. Then she didn't do it...I couldn't find the ads in the paper, so I called to find out what was going on, but she didn't return my calls (since the end of August). I know she had gotten sick, but the anger she has displayed toward us as well as the birthmom (birthdad too, from what I'm hearing) is just inappropriate.
Maybe she didn't do it because it wasn't the right thing to do in this case. OK. So why did she talk about it in the first place? I guess I'll never know, since she isn't talking to us.
So now, as far as attorneys are concerned, I guess we are starting over. It's hard because we need an attorney in GA, but we live in CO - so it's hard to really know what we're getting (as evidenced by this fiasco - this person came highly recommended!)
Thanks to everyone for the information and support. I'm doing my best to keep myself together through this, be strong and all. I guess I'm doing pretty good. I have a baby shower to attend today (for us), and I'm just hoping I don't cry through the whole thing!
