I didn’t expect it to feel like this…

TPR was granted.  Mom has 20 days to appeal, but no one has heard from her for 3+ weeks.

The email notifying us came with a bunch of adoption paperwork to be filled out.  So many questions we haven’t allowed ourselves to think of now need answers.  My mind is spinning to think of it all.

And then it quiets and goes back to the place its been dwelling so often these past few weeks…

but what about her? where is she? how badly is she hurting? when will I speak to her again?
