Visit 1-2-3 with Timmy

Thursday, February 19, 2015

>>>>Fast forward to January>>>>>
Visit 1 January 2, 2015. 

I was a little nervous and had so many thoughts swirling around in my mind. Would he like us? Does he even know what's going on? How will he act? etc... you get the point. The meeting went as well as could be expected. We met Timmy, his foster parents, and both our social worker and his to go bowling. It was really fun to watch David, he is a natural. Timmy immediately warmed up to him and Timmy wanted David to help him bowl and play video games. It was precious.

The second time we visited with Timmy we were invited to his home eat dinner with him and his foster family. The evening started off a little awkward, but he soon warmed up to us and we enjoyed some board games and eventually wrestled with David and he snuggled up in my lap to look at pictures on my phone. 

Important Dates
>>>January 20, adoption committee officially approved David and I as Timmy's "forever Mommy and Daddy." 

>>>January 29, Timmy is told he will be leaving his current placement and about us and how he will be getting a forever mommy and daddy. 

Visit 3 January 31, 2015
We got to have our first all day visit with him Saturday the 31st. We had no idea how this day would go, we honestly thought it might be a bit of a challenge to even get him in the car. We prayed on it and headed to pick him up saturday morning, and to our surprise he was ready to go and excited to spend the day with us. We took him to Boone since it was only 30mins up the road. While on our way Timmy said to us, "So I am going to live with you until I get big? That would be fine with me." Both David and I teared up because he seemed to at least grasp what was going on. David and I were excited to take him to a playhouse in Boone that had this amazing train table, (side-note TIMMY LOVES THOMAS THE TRAIN) after some lunch we headed to hawks nest to go snow tubing. (thank you Tressie for the great idea) HE LOVED IT!! It was an absolute blast. It was hard at the end of the day to transfer him back to his foster parents. (by the way we LOVE his foster parents, I'll tell you more about them later) We love this little guy soooo much.





Signing off,

The Mom To BE!
