Thanks again everyone for the info and advice. I guess I am just frustrated with their system. We want to get moving on this and help this little one year old feel loved and not so alone.
We are waiting for the Social Worker to get things moving but since we are in different Cities and this is not a "emergancy case to them" they are in no hurry. They are just mad because the original Foster relative changed her mind about taking him and we volunteered to do it since she is not able to. No one returns our phone calls and we play phone tag all the time. I am praying something will happent this week. This little boy is going between 2 homes becuase they will not move the process along. He stays the night at my cousins who started the process 3 weeks ago but because of finances she cannot do it. We stepped in and said we would! He comes to us during the day because my cousin works full time and cannot afford day care and the State will not help out. Then he goes back to her at night. Poor little boy is so confused on who to attach himself too.
We are so ready for him to move in and he has taken to us so well. There are so many things to learn about this process but again very frustrating since the system is not listening to us and not moving it along. It is always "we will call you back!" ARGH!!
Thanks everyone and keep giving the advice....I think this will be a journey we will never forget!
