Mine, too. My fs's bio mom is torn between relinquishing and working her case plan. She goes back and forth. The first time she mentioned relinquishing so I could adopt, I was absolutely over the moon. It was horrible when I found out she wanted to work her case plan and was given another 6 months. She has been wavering since. She's been having a horrible time getting & keeping a decent job. And it's been 9 months and she still doesn't have a decent place to live. At the rate things are going, she may end up at TPR by the holidays next winter. I don't wish this on her. If she can get herself together, she deserves to have him. For her own well being and safety, I wish she'd get a decent roof over her head. She doesn't have any support from family. She has a disability which makes life even harder. I feel for her. I really do. I'm torn, too. I would love to adopt "Brandon" but I know how much his biomom loves him.

I'm just waiting it out at this point.

Congrats. Be happy-but guarded until she actually signs.
