Where to Start?

Things have been going ok here. I'm getting prepared to take 2 classes in July and hopefully finish my certification by next summer. I went to the school board to fill out the paperwork and I was pleasantly surprised at my starting salary. My bitch principal did me a favor and got me a nice raise. Also, I'm relieved not to have to worry about health insurance.

K is recovering from surgery but I'm having difficulty keeping him from doing things he shouldn't be.

I got an email from G's foster mom saying he was missing J. I feel bad, but J is THRIVING without G. He's able to get mommy and daddy attention since we are no longer constantly trying to keep G out of trouble. J and Smiley play so good together.

Smiley goes back to the nuerologist on Tues. I'm sure he'll want to run more tests. His head is still very small. There's so many questions with him that can't be answered yet. All we can do is hope for the best.

We accidentally got an email asking us to take a 14 yr old boy, same name as K. K begged me. I told him hell no. I can't handle anymore teenagers and all I need now is another boy to gang up on mommy, which L and K have been doing a lot of lately. I guess it will be payback time when we get a girl. Seriously though, one teenager is enough!

Ok, so you want a pic of Smiley? I'll leave it for a couple days.

    We are in the process of getting our tradional foster license so that we can take in kids other than relatives. I have been wondering whether or not to take in any more teenagers. But I think your posts describes my thoughts best. Hell No! I have a 15 year old son and a 12 year old foster daughter and have already raised two other girls through their teens years (now adults) and I think I've had my fill of teenagers. My kids are great, but!!!!
