This is about my life loving a bunch of crazy people. We are searching for ways to cope and heal from an alphabet soup of diagnosis. I am proud to be the mother of the bravest people I know.

Presenting The DeBruces
I am so exhausted from such a fantastic day. We had some really tense moments but made it through with excellent behavior. I will tell you all the details tomorrow, I promise. I am the happiest woman alive tonight.
CONGRATULATIONS.... :-) Weee hooo they are all so precious. I am so excited for you YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I remember when you were hoping that they would come home and they ARE YOURS and your hubby's.
Sending so much love to you and your wonderful family.....ooohh okay...I'm crying....oh boy am I sappy.
Thanks so much, I am so happy still this morning. It is like a huge weight has been lifted off my chest that I had been carrying so long I forgot it was there. Let's hope their acting out slows down a bit soon.
The kids are in order from left to right Michael, Emma, Ava, Ruthie, Cyr, Ella, and Patches. The adults are My MIL, Their Aunt Michelle and Uncle Floyd, Judge Davis, My DH, Me, My Mom at the bottom (Gorges is her name), our attorney Barbra Bishop, and our beloved OT Miss Mary Jo.
I just stumbled across your blog a few days ago and have been reading it back to the beginning every second I can find in my day! Congratulations and you are all amazing in your own ways!!!!
Quick intro, so I feel less sketchy: I'm Abby, 23 from Massachusetts. I'm about a month shy of getting my teaching license/degree and student teaching in Denmark currently. I've always been interested in fostering/adopting, especially sibling groups! =)
MIL is Mother in Law, DH is Dear Husband or Damn Husband depends on the post, DD is Dear Daughter, and DS is Dear Son
Thanks again for all your support. I am so tickled to see so many new folks here from all over the world. Welcome! I promise I will get to the many emails soon!

ReplyDeleteMIL... mother in law? I'm slow... was your husband not able to come?
