Our Meeting w/a Birthmother

Dan and Kath (2008)

Home: Well we met with a birthmother today for adoption. Honestly can't say how it went. She was a little quiet and couldn't think of any questions to ask. We think she may not be sure she even wants to place her child (even though she says she is). What I'm not sure is who the "real" father is - supposedly her current boyfriend - but why (she has an 8 month old) would the "real" father of this child (the first is not his) want to give his own child up for adoption? It is interesting to meet people, but I'm not going to get excited about this (no matter how far we get until parental rights are at least with Catholic Charities)! I'll keep everyone updated. Right now I'm still looking forward to going to Colorado in May! I'm half way through Accounting 102! Only a few more courses and Im ready to move on.

Work: Some of the staff are planning a dinner get together but I think it's Easter Weekend. Not sure how many people will show up. I think Dan having an extra day off was good for him... One less stressful day - he seemed much more relaxed!

Dan: Is still Dan! The birthmother today told him he could do something about his "gray" hair (meaning dye it)! Then Dan blamed me for giving him gray hair (I asked him if that made him feel old - he said no.)
