lol skoot! You are so funny!
I have only had one placement. A little girl. She was 7mths at the time so she didn't call me anything. My son was 9 mths and every one thought maybe they were twins because of there hair color being the same. My son is much taller and has greenish brown eyes and my fd has very big blues eyes. so they didn't look that much alike but I have blue eyes and my hubby has greenish brown eyes so....they could be ours. But when people ask(not just make the comment in passing) I always said that he is mine and she is a friend of the family that will be staying with us for a while and left it with that. I have so far not had anyone ask any farther question after I said that. \
As far as the family and friends...Well I called as soon as I heard that she was coming and told everyone that I see on a regular basis. MY mom and dad friends and such. The friends that are my nieghbors came over to help for a few hours. They brought us some food over because I didn't have time to cook and helped make her feel welcome and to help with my son. He was scared because she was crying so hard and it was making him cry because he had never been around a crying baby. She was hungry and could not eat because her nose was sooo stopped up she could not breathe when she tried to suck the bottle. But Friends and family are a big help and will always tell them first thing. GOOD luck
Now my fd is gone(I do babysit for her still) and we are waiting on our next placement.
