Aaaarrrggghhhh if I go to sleep then I wake up with only one sleep till panel (approval)
Last time I was nervous this time scared because our AS now 7 really wants a sibling and that's not somthing we can give with out adoption then the added social worker saying she is asking a child social worker if she can share a CPR before panel what does that even mean Shock
🤞 that it goes well our family would be complete if not we are booking New York for Xmas buying a dog and booking to go back to Florida in May 2020 HmmSmile

Your social worker appears to be sure that you will be approved at panel because otherwise, they wouldn't be wanting to share a child's CPR with you.... they must have a child in mind for you. Very exciting & I'm sure that everything will go well. My panel last month was such an anti-climax.... All the hype and nervousness for literally 3 questions in a room full of people I'd never met. When I think back, everyone in the panel now is faceless in my memory.. Confused

Thankyou !
We have 6 questions all todo with little one already at home with us
Turns out she's not sharing it before panel but will explain any when she comes out to see us later today
Yes I remember the first time I was so nervous but I feel this tome I have a 7 year old to let down and it was only our selves last time I think am worried about telling him that they said no xx

It must be difficult. I've had interest in us for a LO & there SW & FF are coming to meet us in a few weeks time. I'm so nervous incase they say no.... I've had such a connection with this LO's CPR, it's like they're meant to be.

Meanwhile my house is upside down & I could do with a big stack of cash to get everything sorted NOW so it's done. Nesting doesn't ecen cut it 😂

As for your other child.... could you not go with the old saying of "No news is good news" at least then your not lying to them & your also not building it all up for nothing. But I'm sure everything will be absouluty fine.

Good luck! :)

Unanimous yes they said we made the decision very easy and they loved how open we were about everything and we seemed to have turned somethings that people see as negatives into positives without even knowing we are 💙💗
