So said the senior social worker at our matching meeting. He had been known to SS from birth. Had 8 foster homes and had spent reception in a special school. He joined our family aged 6.The youngest of our 4 adopted sons.
Last Fri he and his lovely wife got the keys for a lovely new build 400k flat . 3 min from the River Thames. He has a 2.1 degree ,works for a charity. He inherit some money from both my parents,and his birth grandparents. But he has saved hard. So has his wife and so they had a 20% deposit between them . And will move in in 2 weeks time. They have a wide network of friends. Enjoy exploring places together.
I would love to update the social worker who had such low expectations for him!
