A home of our own :-)

[CannotEvenDeal]

So excited... dh, dss and I are moving into our own flat this week! We've all been staying at my mum's for a while (we were granted residency/pr more quickly than we expected so we needed a bit of time to get ourselves sorted out and my mum was more than happy to have another grandson!)

Dh's and my new job means that we can rent a decent two bedroom flat in a nice area. Dss' bio mum has made no contact for years and I'm so glad that we can provide him with love and stability.

Just that really

Well done!

Thanks, my only regret is signing up for this just before Christmas

Congratulations! Forget the unpacking, just buy a tree and put up some decorations, it will feel like home in no time!!

Good plan!! 🌲🌲🌲

Well done, hope everything continues to go well!

Thank you!! Dss is getting more and more excited... he and my mum will miss each other a lot (so at first he was not thrilled) but of course they'll still see each other

Thats lovely.

I hope you have a fabulous first Christmas in your new home.

We're all settled in and loving the new place.

The subject of me adopting dss has come up increasingly often and we've discussed it at length and decided to apply. His bio mum has already given consent in the past and dss is excited at the idea of me finally being his legal mum after so many years as a family.
