Our Adoption Story

Well I filed all of the paperwork for the step-parent adoption on Friday.  I forgot one critical paper the stupid citation so I took care of that yesterday and got it all ready to go.  The sheriff's department has the paperwork enroute to Dawn as I type and needless to say I am nervous.  I know that this needs to happen.  I love Danae very much and she is as much my daughter as my other 3 daughters are.  I want her to have a life that is one that will keep her happy and emotionally safe I really do not feel that this is too much to ask. 


Taking away someones parental rights is a very big deal though.  At the end of the day I know that this is the right thing for my daughter.

So Dawn was served today and man is she @#!*% .  I get that she is angry and rightfully so but I still stand by the decision that this is the right decision for Danae.  She stated that I lied about the entire situation and fabricated the story for my own personal gain.  I am not sure what else I am gaining other than a child which I am already loving and raising like my own.

I met with an attorney today.  This is a man whom I know to be personally connected with our issue.  He is one who is familiar with the amount of crazy that encompasses Dawn and is able to sidestep her issues and get to the root of the problem.  Mickey is one that I trust completely to deal with this problem and yes I am referring to Dawn as a problem.  She is like that piece of skin on a papercut that isn't really a detriment but more of a pain in the @#!*% simply because you know it is there to bother you.  Things look good thus far we are on the road to termination and I could not be happier.

Court was this morning.  I was so nervous I thought that I was going to vomit right then and there outside of the courtroom.  Why? I am not sure.  I have an attorney.  Someone that I have paid to help me get my way.  I guess I was just nervous about our ad litem showing up.  I know that Mr. X holds the key to the future of this case.  Dawn was able to meet with her court appointed attorney for a total of 2 minutes prior to the case being called. This amuses me.  We went in and scheduled the next hearing for October 18 and were able to get Mr. X assigned to the case at his own request.  I am eccstatic.  He is an @#!*% and in some ways I hope he writes a report so fierce that she cries at the outcome.  Is this evil...no just twisted.  Enjoy!!
