Adoption Class #4 (6 More To Go!)


Every class gets slightly easier (for me). Josh, on the other hand, had to do some 'choice-word-ranting-therapy' on our drive home; mostly revolving around the same Idiot Guy.
I still tally-marked his idiot remarks, to which Josh gives a little chuckle each time!
Also to entertain myself I discovered that it's really fun to play tic-tac-toe against yourself. 'X' was kicking some butt. And doodling. Doodling is a great time-waster.

What did I learn tonight? Well, tonight's class was on the Attachment Theory...so again, learned it all in undergrad. They did, however, do an imagery-walk through what the child goes through. That was a bit useful to sort of envision yourself living through the process and being taken away from your house and everything you know, and then thrown into this new house where they are overly excited to have you.

Anyways, here's my lil poem I scribbled tonight:

Attachment foundation
Trust initiation.
Follow behind
Life grind.
Responsible parent
Repair sent.
Sense self
Level shelf.
Capacity met,
Give
Get.
Grief end
Learn trend.
Delay of care
Concentrate there.
Protection needed
Stress headed.
