We drove in the rain (40 minutes) to meet the SW. When she pulled up, the tears in Thomas' eyes were huge. He knows what's happening when she pulls up. Poor little guy. The worst part is when he looks at you with tear stained cheeks and tears in his eyes. He was crying so hard he was holding his breath. "M--a--m--a, M--a--m--a..." Oh those words and that look just crush me. Stay strong right?? So the SW got him in her car (to go to the visitation w/ BM). I met a friend in the bookstore next to the parking lot. About 10 minutes into the three o' clock hour, my cell phone rings. The SW said that at 2:30 (30 minutes before the visitation) the BM called her WORK phone and left a message, saying she needed to reschedule the visit. The SW told me that it won't be rescheduled because they won't do 2 visits next week. So we loaded up in the car to head home.
Next Thursday is another visitation.
**This is the BM who doesn't want to lose her parental rights but can't keep a commitment**

What a roller-coaster ride, poor little Thomas :(
oops may 3rd!
trish, i read this and thought oh good monica is sealing the deal of terminating her parental rights...2 no shows, that can't look good for the judge, if she really wanted thomas, she would fight tooth and nail to be there...so i'm thinking this is another positive for you guys...
praying for may 5th!
love chris
