Hello Everyone:

Well yesterday was my appt with an attorney that my husband called about adopting my son. He told us that my son's BF would need to give his consent. If for whatever reason he contest the adoption, then it would be very difficult for us to prove why my son's BF should no longer be in my son's life. To prove that this adoption would be in the best interest of my son. The attorney said that it could be a long process. My husband & I decided that it didnt matter how long it would take or how much $, as long as we could get the adoption. The attorney did suggest that we call the BF back to explain to him that we are going thru with the adoption, that he should expeect the letter of consent that he needs to sign & what he needs to do to send it back. (This way we might be able to find out if he will conset or not b4 the attorney sends out the paper.)

So we called my son's BF last night & told him what we are doing & to be expecting the letter. You should have heard his voice.... He was so happy??? He offered his help along with verifying his address & phone number (Good thing that he did cuz he moved again).

Can you imagine?? This from someone who a week ago swore that he had changed & wanted that relationship with his son. We knew it was just to get out of his responsibilities.

I know that he still has time to contest it, but I dont think that he really will. It has always been about him since we decided to divorce. I am just happy how the conversation went & that this may be the beginning of a complete family for my son!!!
I will keep you updated!!

THANKS FOR LISTENING!!!
