In August of 2009 I chose to get a tempoarary guardianship for my daughter, allowing my sister to care for her. I did not have a home, a job, car or anything neccessary to care for her. I now have a home, a husband who works 3 jobs , 2 step children, and expectind another child. And since I was the one to persue this aggrement I am allowed to terminate it at any time. In the application for the guardianship we, my sister & I, requested for 2 years of guardianship. They granted the guardianship till my daughter is 18. My sister is now trying to convince my daughter I dont love her & that she will not be living me and my family. I rarely get to talk to her. I never got a chance to say happy birthday to her on her birthday because my sister didnt let her call me back. There is a 3 hour difference between us which makes it very hard to talk on the phone. My daughter has a right to know her new family. She has the right to be with me, her mother. I dont do drugs. I dont drink. Nothing of that sort. I lost my job, my home, a previous pregnancy. I got kicked out everywhere I went despite my efforts of finding a job. I only did this so my daughter could continue her education and not have to live in a shelter. But now those things were so unimportant. My daughter is my best friend, and I know I am hers. But It is getting harder & harder everyday away from her. My sister and I have past issues but I am willing to put all that behind me & move forward with my life. She does not see it that way. Yes I am mad about what she is doing to my baby girl. My sister can hate me and never want me in her life again, but she is keeping a child from her mother, who has done no wrong to deserve this. I made mistakes, we all do. I have yet to still get employment but my husband makes enough to support our family, and I dont plan to stay unemployed forever. I miss her very much. She is my strength, my love of my life the reason I push forward every day.
