No News is Good News

You can't control everything.  Sometimes you just need to relax and have faith that things will work out.  Let go and let life happen.

I know it has been a while since I updated.  That is a good thing, I guess.  

Everything is going along just fine.....same 'ole, same 'ole!  

The only big thing that has happened with the adoption in the last week is the birth father has officially signed his rights away.  That really means nothing other than we don't have to worry about him IF she goes through with the adoption.  That is a step in the right direction as the birth father was the reason we ended the other adoption opportunity.  So, that makes us feel a little better.  Now, we just have to make sure mom wants to sign away her rights.  She can do that after 48 hours or after she is medically discharged. 

Aysoni still continues to have EXCELLENT communication.  I have spoken to the agency about her constant communication and hopefully they will talk to her about it.  My concern is that once this is all over, she will not only lose a baby, but a "best friend" as she calls me.  I appreciate and understand her wanting to talk to me a lot....I mean, she is giving us her baby...and I am sure she wants to feel like she is giving him to "friends" versus "strangers".  So, I will continue to constantly communicate with her, if that is what she wants.  I have never been in her position, but I can say that if I was in her position, I would want to make sure my baby was going to "friends".

Taylen has finished up wrestling for this season and had a great time.  He went 10-14...which was darn good considering this was his first year wrestling and most of his opponents have been wrestling since the age of 4. We are trying to talk him into trying out for baseball....hopefully he gets bored quick with not doing anything after school and tries out!  But, as with the wrestling kids, he has been doing baseball since he was 4...my guess he is burnt out!

Tre' is still loving Disney.  We are hoping this baby will work out and I will get to spend a couple weeks with him in March/April.  And we are still planning a vacation to see him in May!

And, if any one is wondering about my namesake fish....well, he died!
