Parenting is not done, but adopting any more is...
My license officially expires in February 2009. Unofficially, I stopped receiving calls in October 2008. I needed to update my CPR training and classroom work. I didn't do that. So my license was put into probationary status. I received a letter from the "home study lady". She has scheduled a home visit for February 3rd, which I am canceling.
I have come to the conclusion that I have enough sons (maybe one or two to many!) and drama to last a lifetime. 
It is not a sad time, but one of satisfaction and fulfillment. Not sure how life will be without caseworkers and adoption therapy sessions. I have had so many of those, I think I could give them.
My grandmother always said, "life is about new doors opening and old ones closing".
