Hi awaiting,
I am so happy for you. I am hoping that's how things will go for us and K. Our pre-placement meeting is on the 11th, then we are heading to his town (4hr drive) for the weekend on the 19th. The 19th is the first time that we will meet him and the environment should be a good one since it is an "adoption event" in their county. we are going to a science museum with other prospective adoptive parents and the foster kids in that area. Since your son won't be going back to his previous foster home, had be brought all of his clothes/toys with him to your house for the "visit"? Did he bring a lot of stuff? We had thought about taking one of our dogs (the best behaved one!) to sort of break the ice with K if/when he visited us in the hotel. What do you think about that? Was it sort of awkward when you first met your son? K is 11, so we aren't sure how to break the ice with him! I got him a GREAT UK basketball sweatshirt. Should we take some games with us? Ok, enough questions! Congratulations again and please let us know how things are going!
