Reunification...
Baby Love is doing excellent. Completely recovered from VSD*repair back in September. She's slowly gaining weight and is up to 10 pounds 3 ounces (last weighed). She is still very tiny for 10 months old. Visits with bio mom are going well. Last week at court it was decided that Baby Love will be transitioning home these next few weeks. While we will miss her, I know that she will be safe with her mommy. Grandma admitted to medical*neglect by still has a great relationship with Love and her mom. Preventive*services will be in place for at least a year after she is home with her bio mom. Therapies will continue and they cannot 'fire' someone or change therapists without the consent of the judge. In this situation, foster care has done exactly what is was set up for.

I know these reunifications are hard but it does make you feel good when the system has done what they are supposed to do and the child gets to go back home. We have only had one true reunification and I was rooting for it the whole entire time.
what a good story! i am so happy she will go to a safe home. you did such a good job loving her.
