"Brandon" was an emergency placement who was only supposed to stay for one night. It's been 9 months and now looking like adoption. They are hoping Mom will relinquish this summer to avoid a TPR trial.
"Angel" was an emergency placement. She eventually went to TPR but a paternal aunt took custody. So, she WOULD have been available for adoption by me if the aunt hadn't stepped forward. So, it was a case of an emergency placement becoming available for adoption.
"Faith" was an emergency placement and had to be moved to another foster home to be with her brother. Because of the home situation and age of bio parents & lack of extended family, it was looking like a very long term placement with possibility of adoption.
"Georgia" is an emergency placement but should reunite with her family in a few months.
