A little catching up to do...

'...To him who LOVES us...'


'and though my heart may fail, you will my portion be'


So we've had a couple of meetings in the past couple of weeks. Our CASA, Nikki, came out to the house last week and talked with Jared & me about everything related to Princess Petunia. She tried to talk with PP as well, but as it was past supper time, that didn't go very well. :)  The most significant thing to come from that meeting was that Nikki was going to really try and push for an ISP. I've done a little research and found that by law, we were supposed to have had an ISP within 72 hours of Princess Petunia coming into care. We're now less than 4 wks from our court date and still have yet to have one scheduled. Just a tad frustrating.


Our new SW, Pam, also came to the house last week. Pam is the SW assigned to Jared and me; Princess Petunia has one also, Sabrina. As I tell the kids, we're just meeting all kinds of new friends. Pam basically just did a walk-through of the house and got me to sign a few papers saying, 'no, we won't spank PP' and 'yes, I know about our respite care policy.' She also was going to try and push for our ISP. 


Jared and I decided to not fight the homeschool/public school battle. (We're going to put all our energy into PP's new IEP to hopefully keep her from being labeled ADHD). I have been asking about getting Princess Petunia registered for school for the past few weeks, and finally just decided to see if I could get that accomplished on my own. After a call to the school and central office, I was able to get her in! Hoorah! We'll just need to get all the paperwork turned back into the registrar tomorrow.
