We're doing okay-ish. The video subject hasn't come up lately (except everytime we buy a new one I mention it stays with the house).

I'm wondering now how many books I should let her take if she wants to take books. For sure she gets the one about the self-esteem eating monster, because that is her favorite. I hope she doesn't want to wipe out the bookshelf.

She wants to get a guinea pig and name it Liz (after me) and take it with her. I wonder how her parents would feel about that! ha!

She is very emotional right now, got another month to wait and she alternates between 'I hate you and I'm glad you aren't my mother' and 'I love you, please don't leave me! I love you, you want me to stay!'.

Last night she asked me in a very sad voice if her real mom (she used her name, didn't call her mom) would still be her mom anymore now that she is going to live with her Dad and Step-mom (she used her name too).

Domino - have you checked the Amazon site for used copies of the videos that were stolen from you? Some of the used prices are so cheap that even with shipping the price isn't too bad.

And I agree Domino, it was kind of funny to read someone posting that because I get a check that should make it okay to send along the videos, they must not know how much kids cost and how little the check is. I wish I could claim the kid as a tax deduction, but apparently a child has to stay for over 6 months, and I need to look into tax rules about deductions for day care and after care.
