got tpr

Just wanted to post that TPR happened in our case last week and we were named the adoptive resource. It 's been a long road and as happy as we are, we know there is another family hurting because of this decision. I do believe it was best for fd and in hearing a little more in court, I believe that even more. We are beyond happy and can't believe what a weight has been lifted. I know we won't feel completely at ease until the formal adoption but we feel pretty good for now.

To all of you waiting, good luck and know that it can really happen.

Congratulations! I am so happy for you and your family.

Like you, I was happy when my AD was TPR'd. However, at the same time, it was difficult because I knew her birth family was hurting. It was one of those times when I went back and forth with how I was feeling. I was happy then I would get sick to my stomach. . . then happy . . . then sick to my stomach.

Please let us know when the Finalization will take place. Enjoy your little girl. Congratulations again!
