This looks promising for C

So, as some of you may remember, I am going to the beach this weekend and had requested respite quite awhile ago. The hope was that they could identify a possible match for C so that she could spend the weekend there.
As of yesterday we still didn't have any respite lined up. But this afternoon I finally got the word. Tomorrow afternoon her caseworker will pick her up and take her to spend tomorrow night with her previous foster moms, She will love that.
Then, Saturday morning someone is picking her up from there and taking her to kidfest. From there she will go home with a woman whose home study is one they are considering.
I spoke with her tonight, as we had to make arrangements for me to get C back on Sunday. She is a single woman, no other kids. I had mentioned to more than one person that I thought that may be the best solution for C. She seems to have a pretty realistic view. We spoke for 20 minutes, and so far, I like her. I really like her!!
Please say a prayer for C.

this sounds promising, Red - and if you like the potential adoptive parent, that has to be a relief.

I used to have a handle on life, but it fell off.
