Well my beautiful darling boy, now we've met. And now I'm counting down the hours until I see you and hold you again. You made all my dreams come true. When I read the CPR I said you were perfect and I was absolutely right!
Prior to meeting we had the planning meeting. This went very quickly and I was given lots of official paperwork, birth certificates, photos, support plans, life story book etc.. It was all gathered up and put in the car to look at later because once done I could meet my son!
From the social services meeting I went to the foster carers. My sons foster mum came in the car with me and we chatted away. I can't believe how calm I was. I've waited for this moment for so long.
When we got to the foster carers home my son was still with the child minders.
After what felt like forever (social worker poised in the corner with my camera ready to record the first meeting) he was brought into the room. Fast asleep! A little perplexed face woke up slowly and looked around from the arms of his foster mum. I touched his hand and said 'hello you, I've been waiting a long time to meet you'.
He looked at me in a very steady way as if summing me up and then was happy to be held by me. Oh my god, I'm holding and cuddling my son! His social worker took more photos and he beamed for the camera.
I spent the next two hours playing peek a boo, feeding and cuddling my beautiful boy. I can't wait until tomorrow when intros start up for real! I'm a mum! This is amazing! I'm totally and utterly in love xxxx
