The Boys



There's not much in the way of legal updates for the boys. Zackary's parents went to court yesterday, but there wasn't enough time for all of the testimony, so the hearing will be continued on April 4th. Just more waiting. Nothing has changed with Jordyn. He continues to see his mom once a week for 2 hours. I'm still confused as to the process because the timelines I thought existed don't seem to exist. Supposedly there isn't another hearing until the summer. So now my fear is that he'll go back to live with mom before then. I am fighting discouragement as I seek to trust God to work things out to make sure that Jordyn stays safe. I had a very blunt talk with his advocate yesterday about how they have placed Jordyn in danger by choosing to overlook some glaring issues related to mom's care for him. Please, please, please continue to pray for Jordyn.

I absolutely LOVE being a mom to these two boys. They bring so much joy to our house. Jordyn is such a ham and loves to make other people laugh. He also adores Miles and imitates everything Miles does. He has learned some new sign language this week, and now does the signs for "eat", "milk" and "all done." Zackary is quite the loveable little baby. He has started to smile at me when I talk to him. Miles has yet to witness it, so he thinks I'm making it up, but I swear it has really happened!!

Thanks to everyone for your prayers. I know God is faithful and has a plan for all of our lives.
