Today was the Summons Hearing for Natalie. So her mom has decided to contest and now we wait for a trial date. In Lamans terms she has decided to try and fight for Divyne. So now we wait for a few weeks to see when we got to trial to fight for this little girl. Divyne's birth father came to court today for the specific purpose of voluntarily terminating his rights but where birth mom decided to fight he decided against voluntarily terminating so he has asked to meet with us and then possibly agreeing to terminate as long as her mom does not get her back. The department has told us that her mom won't win giving her history but we will see what happens. I am kind of curious to see how our meeting with her father will go. We will keep you updated as things progress.
Now Riley...I went to court for Riley today. His parents are making progress. His mom especially. I have seen his mom over the past 1 1/2 years come a long ways in her rehab and in the whole case plan and she REALLY has come a long ways. She is still young and has lessons to learn but she is quickly learning. Mom has been doing all day unsupervised visits with Riley every Tuesday. Let me tell you I really look forward to Tuesdays with only two kids. The Case Worker has asked for a continued effort of reunification. Our next court hearing will be the end of September. Then in September we will see over the next few months what progress his parents have made. I again will keep you all updated.
