Yesterday was LAD. I'm not sure what I expected. It was much more of a meeting than I thought it would be, with minutes taken.
The vast majority was birth mothers story and family which will be really useful when I do life story stuff. But quite emotionally exhausting.
The amount about my (fingers crossed) boy was pretty short.
I was very glad I'd met the foster carers before and they'd answered all questions.
Foster carers bought the most beautiful a4 printed photos charting from picking him up in the hospital right up until last week. Each had a description of where and when it was and it was truly amazing to see. However I looked through once and then the meeting started and then at the end they were taken away to be given to me at a later date. I wished had a second look.
The FC said it irked her too.
When I got to the car and checked my phone and FC had forwarded on a pic of LO playing whilst we'd been in LAD.
Was so lovely.
Later I was in boots and saw the photo printing machines and thought why not? So a few printed photos of my boy to display. Lovely to see them on a phone or iPad but printing off and displaying is way better. No frames yet though! Not until after matching panel! 241 hours to go! Am I counting too much?
Everyone in LAD acts like it will happen but panel is scary! I just want it to hurry up!
I also want the freezer defrosted and oven cleaned which are my chores for today rather than procrastinating on my blog! Oops
