WOW! WHAT an ANGEL you are!

The first thing that comes to mind,
Was when I was using and had been caught up in *The System*,
I was instructed by my lawyer to draw up *Temporary Guardianship Papers*..
I wrote them out myself and had them notorized, giving my mother temporary~until further notice~guardianship..
My mom signed them and that piece of paper became enough to keep my kids out of fostercare and in the family.

If you could get her father to sign something like that, it might just be enough..
Sounds like he cares about his child but is just too caught up in meth hell to take care of her.
Maybe he will care enough to let her go.

I think that I would definitely talk this over with a lawyer.

How WONDERFUL it is that this little one can feel loved and safe...
How WONDERFUL that you have opened your home to her.
