I did it!

[Nicole3d]

We dropped Noah of at my MIL. It was the hardest thing we ever had to do. We cried all weekend and Sunday morning when it was time to leave. At one point we even said that we are taking him back. This was hard. I cant believe how attached i got to Noah in 6 month. My golden retriever zack misses him. He keeps looking for him.
I have talked to my MIl like twice a day and she said that he is doing really good there. There are lots of older people who love him already. He is in NH and he is doing great with the snow as well. Thats gotta be funny.
She kept my sons pillow and blanket on the couch and he likes to lay there like a king. He loves looking out the window.
I am glad i did it this way. I still get to see him once in a while.
Thank you all very much for your help in getting me through this.
I hope i never have to do this again....

Nichole,

I know that this was very hard on you and your family. Remember you did what was best for Noah and for your family. Bottom line is he is happy and your kids are safe. All is well.

I have gone through what you have too. It is heartbreaking. I adopted a cute rambunctious little boy last October. He was so SO different than Abby, who is happy and content to be in the house. I actually thought she was lonely since I had to go back to work, which is why I adopted him. He didn't do well here. I tried everything possible. My mother, who already has a doxie lives 4 or 5 hours north of us. I called her up and asked if she would just consider taking him. I changed my mind about 50 times before I relented and they came and picked him up. I cried all weekend, and some the next week. I talked to her at least 2-3 times a day. My little boy has NEVER been happier. He LOVES it up north and being outside. He gets to be *with* my parents 24-7 and is loved beyond measure.

I did the right thing, doesn't mean it was the easy thing. We made a decision that was best for him, and hurt my heart deeply. I am content and even thrilled at the decision we made now. You will look back in just a short while to see that you will feel the same way too.

You did the RIGHT thing!
