Oh sweet boy, the journey! :) As previously stated in some past entries, we are now able to see you more than we ever thought possible. So fun to get to see you at the stage we are and interacting with you. You are very funny. Anyway, a few weeks ago, your mom stopped responding to our texts and phone calls. I was even facebooking her and no response. I was keeping in contact with your grandma and aunt Wene and neither of them heard from her either. So, the past week has been the most we have been missing you. I think I mentioned it to Micah and he to me at random times last week too. Yesterday I was putting away a pair of your socks and Kaydence said, "that Jameson's? Is he coming today mama?" I sighed and said probably not but we should pray for him wherever he is. On Monday Christian and I were at the store and he saw a hot wheels car and asked if he could buy it for Jameson. I let him, not figuring when he would see you and get it to you! Then yesterday, lunch time, I was praying for you and asked God again to spare you from your hard life sometime soon or change your circumstances. I guess God had you heavy on all our hearts for a reason.
Then it happened. I got the call. Your grandma called me in a panic. Seems that long story short, your mom had dropped you and your brother and sister off at your dad's motel room three weeks ago. She told you she would be back the next day, and had an accident in the car. She never came back. Three weeks later, (today) your sister snuck you and your brother out and walked you across town to aunt Wene's house begging her not to make you go back to either parents house. She was so brave. You didn't have any shoes and she carried you most of the way. She said you guys had slept on motel room floor and that she found drugs and lots of other bad things going on. The ball started rolling and calls were made to CYS. We called, your aunt called and even your mom called to ask the kids to go to foster care so as to be safe from your dad. We just prayed and prayed for all things to come to light.
Fast forward to today. . . . . I got a call a little after lunch, asking if we were open to taking you into our care. We said "of course, there is ALWAYS a spot for him." then they said they had to try and keep siblings together but they would really work on letting us get you. We can't take your siblings because we already have a full house they said. At 2:30 the best call ever came. . . . . CAS called to say you were coming into care and we were to come and get you, that you were waiting there for us. :) PRAISE GOD!!!! Micah and I both cried and thanked them and God right there on the phone! You were coming home to us sweet boy, our son was coming home!!!!!
Micah went to get you and then they had to run you to urgent care. You were scabie free and lice free. Micah had you face time me and you kept saying, "hi Chelle!" they said while you were waiting for us, they asked you if you wanted to go live with Chelle and Micah and you screamed YEAH! hahahah
When you walked in that door, you ran and half jumped in my arms and the biggest hug ever! It was the best homecoming ever and so long of a wait! Three years and one month too long!!!!!!
