Wow, time sure has flown. Peanut has been with me for 2 weeks now and things are going well at home.

I met birthmom at a meeting and I feel sorry for her because she is either too drug addled or doesn't have the capacity to understand why they took Peanut from her. She has failed both of her weekly drug screens and I'm pretty sure that she has come to at least one visit smelling of drugs because the baby's blanket had a weird chemically smell when she came home.

Bio GM (who wanted to be considered for a relative placement but wasn't deemed suitable for the other kids) has missed at least one visit and skipped the family meeting, so I am hoping that this is a sign that interest is waning on her part.

Our first court hearing since the placement is next week so at that point I will know more.
