Honey moon stage over

Well has foster parents and kids we call usually the first month the honey moon stage this is where kids are very shy and basically are on there best behavior well we have have Eve since Nov 17th a Monday and she will tell you that. And now we are in to Feb so we have had her about 4months don't get me wrong I love this little girl to death and want what is best for her. Our honeymoon stage is now over she has been a little stinker lately and I am not going to go into detail about what its nothing to big just things that are not exeptle in our home so needless to say timeout is the best option for our kids to sit and think a minute about what they did and if we honestly do that. So all in all timeout has been her best friend lately. Its because she is comfortable here and feels safe and is just trying to push to the limit now. Needless to say she is finally being able to be a KID!! So and yes she does cry and is not happy when this mama has to discipline her where there was obviously no discipline before. That is the thing has foster parents Little by little we find out about these kids why they are in our care and don't get me wrong Eve is a great kid and loves being here and we love here here and I know she will except are rules and still do great here ..

Book review on the lost boy the 2nd book

This is the reason I became a foster parent is to be an example to these kids and let them know they were loved when they don't feel that way . all in all great book I am on to the 3rd book in this series and its A man Named Dave so I will let you know how all that goes

Valentines and such

I can not believe that febuary is almost over and done with and we are moving on to March holy cow I just got an email from Camrons teacher and 58 more days left tell school is out holy cow its around  the corner. So any ways we had a great valentines day and it was a good day.. we also celebrated eve's bday on Sunday  the 15th it is on the 21st but a long wall was suppose to start and it didn't but we just kept it that day. So thanks who all came. So here are pics

So much

Well its been a crazy kind of week at hour house we had valentines day a little birthday party and some fun at the park on Monday with some AWESOME friends thanks gals I sure do love ya. So we had a few other things happen here in this little valley we live we had to kids one in middle school and the other in High school commit suicide so sad all do to bullying come on guys enough is enough there should not be two deaths within a day of each other it needs to be stopped so its been sad. and it affects this whole valley it was hard to sit my kids down Monday and let them know about both these passing cause I told them cause I did not want them going to school in total shock about it.. and I wanted them to here it from me and not be upset about it and then come to find out the one boy is little brother was in Carelys class so they were struggling.

Needless to say on a lighter note I know I said before I went to body talk and it was amazing I found out alot of what is going on with this poor body of mine my surgery and from having cancer I am really not the same I have a lot of scar tissue around my surgery which is making it hard for me to function some days. I am still holding alot of guilt and some depression but the experience I had this last time I know I am forgiven and the mistake I made  I am human and I am moving on. I love body talk and was not expecting to experience what I did this last time. I have had in grief for 26 years from my uncle Jeff's passing and I miss him every day and he knows that . It was an very spiritual experience for me and when I came home I was sill bawling my eyes out and Jesse asked what happen and I told him and he said WOW .. SO needless to say I feel so much better and at peace. I love this valley we live in and am thankful for all I have a wonderful husband who loves me and Cherish's me and hops on board of this crazy journey, I am thankful for my kids who i love with out a doubt and am thankful for there teachings in my life.. and most of all I am thankful for the savior and his sacrifice for me and I know he loves me and he lives. Hope you all have a fabulous night and day !!

A child called it book review

okay a friend of mine recommend this book its about foster care and what this little boy went threw and I so can not believe this kid went threw so much and why it took him so long to get out of that house is beyond me.. I give this book a 5 star I absolutely could not put it down. It really hits on what some of these kids go threw so if you ever get a chance it is gut ache and will make you sick. This is the reason I foster kids is to get them out of bad situations and hopefully not has bad has this guy did. Its amazing he lived threw what he did I am reading the 2nd one and will let you know how it goes if you read let me know how you liked it..

I dont get it

so I get a text yesterday from cw and she says is there any way we can change the visit to a different day and I said well yeah so we decided that we will do it today at 12. So I asked why the change she says well mom is out of rehab and going now to the state where grandma lives to rehab. So i ask well okay. So this case is getting to be a mess and to me sends a message that mom and dad don't want to listen to any one and do what they are suppose to so I told the cw well just a little FYI if mom and dad don't get there act together we will gladly adopt her. She says I am so thankful for parents like you guys and what you guys have done for Eve and I was like I am so thankful for Eve in our life and the blessing she is to us. Cw also said they are no longer pushing grandma to do papers cause Eve is so Comfortable here. So any way there is alot going on that way. I also told our cw that I am really ready for another placement see we are licenced for 2 so I told her that and she did make me feel good and say she would place any one with us. you here horror stories of cw and honestly ours has been so great !! We really enjoy her. So just keep praying for us and doing the right thing. We are hoping with visits going to an hour that she will have a break threw in therapy and we will know more about what this little thing has been threw well I guess I better get ready to go work out and for our visit today .. I will let you know how it  goes have a happy Tuesday !!!
