Figuring things out...we think!

Happy Sunday morning~
We are staying in bed a little longer this morning, just relaxing.  We've had a pretty good week this week, on all fronts.  I'll give you the bullet points version:

-Isaiah is doing a little bit better at his daycare.  His teacher is getting more firm with him and one of the negatively influencing children is no longer there.  So less climbing on tables, dumping paint and hitting people this week,  Phew!

-Isaiah started a Sports program on Monday evenings with Gabe.  He LOVES it.  It's for wee ones to help them build sports skills and agility.  There are stations that the kids go around doing all sorts of fun stuff.  Isaiah particularly likes the Basketball station.

-We have a PPT for Isaiah on 4/6 to find out if he will qualify for the town preschool program.  We hope he does, but never know.

-Gabe and I got a new attorney this week, who we REALLY like.  He really knows his stuff!!  All he does is child welfare work and we were impressed with his approach from the first phone call we had with him.

-DCF is filing the termination of parental rights petition with the court this week.  From there we will get a plea date, which will likely be near the end of April / beginning of May.  DCF suspects that Isaiah's Mom will consent to terminate her rights at the plea date to avoid a trial.  That would be great!  Fingers crossed.

Last night our cousin Katie came by and babysat Isaiah for a few hours while we went out to watch Basketball with some friends.  It was a much needed evening out.  Isaiah was uneasy by the end of the night, worried we may not be coming home, but in the end it was all great.  We are committed to getting out a little more and getting him used to babysitters, and to the fact that if we go out we will always come home.  That was inconsistent with his Mom.

Today we are going to one of the town schools for what's called the Bunny Blast!  The local Lions club chapter holds it for kids ages 2-8.  The Easter Bunny will be there, crafts and of course a bouncy house!!!  Barbie, Baby William and Alejandra are coming with us.  Will post pictures later.

Until then...
