Waiting...

I mentioned before that Ben and I were considering a big change for our family. Well we have made a decision and are waiting...
We have decided to seek custody of our great nephew. He is currently in foster care in another county. We are waiting for the next hearing, which is next Wednesday. I spoke with Ben's sister today (she is the child's grandmother) and she had just had a visit with him and spoke to the case worker (please don't call these people social workers if they don't have a social work degree! Ok, the Social Worker will get off her small soap box now :) He, the case worker, seems to have a favorable bend toward the child's dad and step mom. The case worker indicated to Delena that the child might go with them next week. Ben and I very much do not want this to happen for numerous reasons!!
So we are waiting...
There are no answers today, no way to speak to the attorney for the child until court (he is out of town), no way to know what the case workers intentions are. We are waiting on the Lord and trusting that what is best for this sweet boy will come out in the end.
Waiting...
