Family Time

Even though the circumstances are not what we would like, it is good to have some family time. Mike arrived late Tuesday night to be here for the hearings this afternoon.

Julia and the kids are sure glad to have him here for a few days.

We got to spend some time with Maddy on Tuesday at the DHS office (supervised visit). They got to have 2 hours together.

She was thrilled to see her siblings again. We brought the kids over and visited with Maddy for the last 1/2 hour of Julia's visitation time.

And she remembers Mark and me - we were so glad to get a little time with her. She gave us lots of kisses.

But most of the time, of course, being Maddy, she just wanted to run around and play. We headed back inside to the playroom, where she had a good time with the toys, although the room was a little on the small side.

Playing with a dolly stroller.

Mike and Julia will get to see Maddy today - an extra visitation for Julia this week - because DHS made arrangements for an extra visit since Mike can only be in town for a short time.
