I knew it was coming but it still took me by surprise today. After we got there for visitation granny asked M how long she has been in the program now and she answered back four months and some change. then granny called me over to her and started crying while she asked me what I thought about Connor coming to live with M. All the staff were in agreement that M is doing so well that she deserves this. I broke down in tears of course, as always. Not just sad that I was going to miss him, but happy tears because I am just so proud of my baby girl and so thankful to granny and this rehab. So granny called M over and told her that she was moving into the children's dorm on Monday! She will be there a week to get used to it and then Connor will come live with her!!! I am not exactly sure if it will be next weekend or the weekend after but he will be with mommy very, very soon...she was just beyond ecstatic, so happy, so thankful... <3
We are all very sad here but I told the boys that we are going to have Connor at least one weekend a month, maybe two. And we are all in agreement that he should be with his mommy.
Connor is being dedicated in the church tomorrow and M will be allowed to walk with him. She asked granny to walk with us, too.
Our family counseling session today was about the dangers of leaving rehab early and how they want the women to stay as long as possible. There are 18 graduates living there and they have a total of 21 children. So Connor will be surrounded by children every day.
He is so happy when he is with mommy. I am thrilled for them both. It will be hard. He has been my whole life for a while now. So I am crying both happy and sad tears tonight and so are my boys. My son is up there snuggling with him right now... ♡
