Just met brand new foster daughter's grandparents, uncle, and cousin an hr after

meeting her. How's that for wild? We were going into Target at the same time just by chance. It was actually a very good meeting though for all I know one of them was the perpetrator (though I don't think so).

She wants to call me "mom" which surprised me but I am ok with it. So far, so good! She's unpacking and we are going to go to the movies.

This is of course respite, but chances are good she is moving in soon.

Glad that meeting went well. It sounds like she is ready for a forever home!

Nooooo....this meeting was an accident! I am sure not what the caseworkers would have wanted but it went well. She will likely be going back to the birth family, either the mom or an aunt and uncle.

I just thought it was wild that an hr after I get my first foster chid, we run into the family!
