Court Went Well

After several stressful months of dealing with lawyers and the boy's parents the decision of the judge in court yesterday is that Devon and Ryan is permantly placed in my home. I am so excited that they will be taken care of. I do not have the worries anymore that at any given moment they might be jerked out of my home. Thank you to all the prayers, love, and support in this difficult period. All the prayers were there with me in court yesterday. I feel like now they are my kids and not just kids that I am taking care of until their parents get their heads on straight. I was not giving up on them without a fight. They deserve a chance at life like any other human being on this Earth does. Welcome Devon and Ryan to my big happy family.

Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day Mom! Love Jesse

This is what Mother's Day is all about.
I have a supportive man that loves me and made Mother's Day special.
Ray thinks she is it.

My big happy family.

My kids minus Riley (he was throwing a temper tantrum.)

All the family met for lunch and took the kids and dogs to the park.

Boys liked the soccer post.

Amber wore out.

Zoe is a spazoid.

Ryan actually missed kicking the ball. It was funny.

Cody was so fascinated with the dogs that he did not even play ball.

Riley, Amber, and Cody.

Happy Mother's Day Mommy.

Riley made me a puzzle and when I put it together it had a message for Mother's Day.

Devon was supposed to be taking the dog out.

The kids made me cards, and they gave me flowers to plant.

Ryan made me a card that says thank you for all the you do for me. Pretty deep coming from him.

Here are all my flowers from the kids. They are in the sink because I watered them.

Me driving our puppy nuts. Zoe did not get me anything for Mother's Day.
