I so empathize with some of your thoughts/feelings on bonding. It took me longer than I thought with La-la and now that bond is utterly and totally there. Hang in there for the wild ride of the legal wranglings. We just got done with our final hearing and made it past the last appeal period- the birth dad totally rejected attempts to terminate his rights and there was all kinds of drama and delays due to his residence in prison and budget cuts making transportation to hearings a low priority.... Glad that you are doing better - and remember joy is often a series of brief moments... Looking forward to meeting in person. Wow, thought provoking post.

You two sound like great parents, and T-4 and T-6 sound like great kids who have been through a lot. My heart went out to you after the December post. Tonight I yelled at my kids. Why? Because I am a parent and my kids are kids. We push each others buttons sometimes. That's just the way it is. I'm so happy that things are going better for your family. Thinking of you.
