| Hope you enjoy these! Hugs Ruth Emily's progress!
Well the last week has been hard on us all! Nana is unwell and looking so much more frail! But the most positive thing about the experience is the first time that Emily hasn't thrown one tantrum about going to visit! Generally Emily would have thrown a tantrum! She feels generally unsafe and insecure about the hospital! So we are so proud of her and celebrating the achievement she has made! We are truly amazed by this!
Of course the fact that Nana is still not well! She has the Occupational therapist visiting today to see if her cognitive level is suitable to have her still living by herself! She is such a stubborn woman! She is very quick to think that we are all ganging up on her! so the fact that the kids bought her new pj's and slippers! It is interesting to stand and watch her life as she knows it is slipping away! Old age is a hard reality hopefully for us all! Thanks for all the support and encouraging words!

We have spent the last few hours stressing at home due to Nana being unwell and sick with an infection in the leg without medical treatment she would have been in serious strife!
However she has been on antibiotics since Keith saw her on Saturday and took the kids to visit she had an infection. Keith took her back to the doctor's today and has got home yet it is now after 9 pm. His mother was sent to the hospital for a drip of antibiotics to aid her! And we are still unsure whether she will be admitted! So hopefully we will hear something soon as I have Aiden rumaging in the kitchen looking for something to eat! He is stressed about Nana too! Hugs Ruth CCAA update the website
The CCAA has finished the placement of children for the families whose adoption application documents were registered with our office before December 8, 2005.
So families who have their paperwork logged in by 8 December 2005 have been sent allocations or referrals of babies! We are still waiting and within the next few months we should see Alice's face! our paperwork was logged in after 19 December 2005 and before 10 Jan 2006. we will know more next month! Thanks for the support it is frustrating for families like ours whom thought the wait would be around a year at the most well almost 2 years down we are hanging in there! Hugs Ruth in NZ Thursday, November 01, 2007Adoption Builds our familyThis came to my in box today and I thought I would share it with you all! Thanks Carol for supplying it to me! "Adoption has the dimension of connection - not only to your own tribe but beyond, widening the scope of what constitutes love, ties and family. It is a larger embrace. By adopting we stretch past our immediate circles, and, by reaching out, find an unexpected sense of belonging with others." Isabella Rossellini We have two special gifts one who knows his birthfamily and birth history and one that doesn't but by blending these two treasures they both have gained so much. And so have we! We can only imagine what Alice will bring to our family! Sending positive wishes and hugs to all those families who have early Dec Lid dates who will see their babies faces for the first time in the next week or so! Arohanui Ruth
