well j3b, she had a talk with them before i drove her back to om's house.

she told them that she knows they want her home and they need to know that having her visits with them at home is a start. if her visits continue you to be as nice as the last 2, then maybe mommy and daddy can work on mommy coming home to stay.

so it sounded good to the kids, but they all told her they will remind her often how much they want her home.

her and i are spending about an hour and a half in the car together when i drive her to and from her visits. its been good conversation. today she smacked my leg when she had something exciting to tell me. she even briefly held my hand and gave it a squeeze.

all positive steps to me.
