I really do appreciate the sound advice! Thanks for that. CPS has relinquished control of these two children but still maintain control over their baby sister who is in Foster Care in Kentucky still. All parties involved are pushing for her Foster Family to adopt her as soon as they can have the mother's rights terminated.
She has been given numerous opportunities to do what is right and to better herself for her children and has blatantly stated that she does not want kids and that she does not want reunification in the end. She told the Judge in court that she has no intentions of ever seeing these two here again! What a statement to make huh? She was actually arrested in court by the bailiff for her comments during court. She argued with the GAL, her own In-Home Services FSW, the CASA, the attorney representing my husband...anyone she could argue with but ONLY about what kind of person she was, not about whether or not her children were being removed that day!! I think that I would have been much more concerned about where my kids would be living rather my image wouldn't most?
Either way the cake is sliced, these kids deserve a lot better than the hand they were dealt in life and are getting that due completely to my husband and I working together to make their lives better every day! Thanks for the advice once again and I get that some Stepparents are evil and do not truly care about their spouse's children but I do! I would not spend so much time on here defending myself and my relationship with them if it did not matter to me!
