Well today is day 20 for me which I am grateful for. I was able to have a visit with my 3 week old babygirl who’s name is Ava, I was so happy that I got to see her yesterday, an hold her, and to love her and just to be lucky that I was able to spend sometimes with her because I have missed her so very much that I’m always thinking of her. One thing I’m worries about is that she won’t remember who I am right now and that breaks my heart. I also had a court hearing today which went well, they gave us another court date for 3 months and a service plan, I have already got a jump start and signed up for parenting classes, mothers group and I start counseling in December. The one main thing I have to do is stay drug free and continue with getting drug tests done which is fine with me, I also have to find an apartment so I can bring her home to because right now my boyfriend and I(the baby’s father ) don’t have an apartment right now, we are currently staying at his mothers house until we find something which I hope it won’t be very long that we’re able to find one. I am so motivated to getting my babygirl back because all my decisions are about her now along with the decisions I make. None of my family members have met my daughter and I hope they all can on Thanksgiving.

Attack that service plan. Go get that sobriety. Go get that baby back. Go get that happiness.
I look at DCS stepping in and taking our kids and putting them into foster care as a blessing now, hated it at first, railed against it. Allowed the wife and I to focus on sobriety and the plan, allowed us to breathe and do what needed to be done. Only got to see the kids for 2 hours a week supervised at first, stayed sober, peed clean, hit those services and court dates and it was expanded to 4 hours, then unsupervised, then the kids got returned home.
Do what you need to do to get right.
Go get that life!
