Busy Thursday

Several things are running through my mind, but I can't devote a whole post to each one right now.  We have 2 foster care meetings today: one this morning about services for the kids.  The second one is about questions the mom had.  All of our incident reports from the day care coincide with what the mother questions, so things will be fine.  However, I let the social workers know that my conversation with the mother will be minimal and to the point.  The social worker told me that unfortunately, this happens sometimes because the parents feel like nothing is in their control and this is their way of having control. 

In other news, John is finishing up his second week of his first clinical assignment.  He's doing great and learning a lot.  I am so proud of him and the great work he's doing with the patients.  I am also grateful that I can take advantage of getting PT help from him. Last week, he put together a fitness program for me.

To my prayer buddy--I'm offering up tonight's CPS meeting for your intentions! Even though the social worker told me that it will be easy and painless, I'll still be a bit nervous, so this is for you! :)

On an unrelated note--do any of you have a favorite tradition to celebrate the Feast of the Assumption? Please comment if you do!

On a note related to the Assumption, Cherub likes to touch our eyes, nose, mouth and ears and hair and say the names of them.  When we were in the back yard last week, I saw him climb up to the statue of Our Lady.  He started gently touching her eyes, nose, mouth, ears and hair. Then he went back to playing.  I wish I had the camera. It was so sweet and cute.  Surely, his heavenly mother is pleased with this little boy.
