Thanks - I need all the help I can get. My baby was in the Big Bird/Muppets/Mr. Rodges stage. (she is 22 now) I am running out at lunch and grab some Dora gear, cause right now all I know is Dora, and she kept saying "No way Boots" and something about diego.
On another bright note I have kept a lot of my daughter's old movies and dvd's (Cinderella, 101 Dalmations, Little Mermaid, etc) those should be good for a little mileage.
Swiper NO SWIPING!!!! (OMG, talk about hijacking a post)-I'm out.
Grab your back, lets go! Jump in! Vamonos!
Hey thanks a lot Flutterby!!!!! That didn't help any!!
D-d-d-d-d--ora ddddddora ! YOu can lead the waaaaaayyyyy!
Know I have that stupid Dora song in my head!! Somebody help me!!!!
I'm so happy things turned out the way they did! I thin it's great your sis and husband showed up there. It shows that she truly does care and wants help. Sometimes it just takes a event like that to get through to them. I honestly thing all of this will work out just fine. Sure, it will take some time but everything is heading in the right direction. As for Dora, if you have any questions, let me know! I've been mr. mom since my daughter was 6 months old and know way to much about Dora!!!!!! I've seen every episode at least 100 times!
WOW>>.things are coming full circle...i hope this is her bottom...and it's great she's agreeing to help...i think you really needed to take this action to get her so see the reality of it all.....hats off to you...no that's some real TOUGH LOVE!!!
And yes...Dora the explorer...looks like you need to do a little sleuthing on what's up w/ kids shows..hehe
Congrats on the job offer...things are looking up in all directions....!
I'll keep you and your whole family in my prayers...
heck...i can't sleep at night..by the time i get done praying for everyone...it's time to get up!! LOL
So glad this is coming to a positve note...at last..you have been an angel for your sister..she is lucky to have you!
Good things happen for good reasons. You needed to have that job offer after all of this as a real reminder of your qualities!!! Be proud! This wouldn't have happened without you!!! ANd your Scooby Doo investigative instincts! Way to go...I hope she will soon appreciate saving her life...and think-her baby is so young she won't remember this nightmare!!! well, really.... take care of YOU too.....remember that.
WOW!! congrats on the new job!!! what a blessing!!! You deserve some goodness right now ~ I bet it couldn't have come at a better time!!! :)
Words cannot convey my gratitude to all of you wonderful people. I feel like i know each and every one of you and you have all touched me. I am very hopeful and today I can go home and let little Maddy know that I know Dora! That is why she kept saying something like "no way boots?" Anyway it was cute.
Brother in law just called me and they have a few facilities they are looking at, and evidently insurance is agreeing to cover. I am SO thankful to think she could be in treatment in a matter of a few days. I told him to tell her not to worry - kids will be loved and cared for and we will be waiting to love her too when this is over. Please pray this all works out. On a side note, got a SUPER job offer this morning!! I had even forgotten I had applied so I am on cloud 9 about that. I am going to accept of course - I just never expected it. I guess so many crappy things have happened lately it was hard to think about something good coming along. Stay in touch and I will try to update - much love to all and GOD BLESS!!
so glad to hear things are heading in the right direction for everyone in the family. now, go get some Dora and Diego dvd's =) they also sell alot of educational toys with Dora. In fact you cant go anywhere without seeing Dora on something, lol. My kids like those shows too!
PS maybe you could get her a Dora doll, i bet she would love that!
Dora has a cousin named Diego.
It seems that things are working themselves out as it is meant to be. We have had you and your family in our thoughts and prayers. Continue what you are doing, you are a saint, Selfless acts carry their own reward.
It sounds as if your sister has a lot to be thankful for. Perhaps it truly was a blessing in disquise.
Please continue posting,
Peace
Dora is very educational, and what everyone else said is true about the show. My kids loved her when they were younger (even my son). There is also Blue's Clues which is educational and many others. I have you in my prayers. Hope it all works out for you.
WOW!! so glad to hear everything went well.....I am glad she fessed up, and yes maybe this is her bottom...But be prepared that it may not...As long as those kids are safe...
You are one heck of a sister and person....I hope she gets the help she needs..
keep us posted and i am praying for your family!!!

I am so sorry that you are going thru all this. I am proud of you for stepping up to the plate and going the extra mile for your niece and nephews. I will be praying for you and your sis and family. Dora is called Dora the explorer. And she is on nick jr. Little girls do love her. and as maggil said she speakes in english and spanish.
God bless you and I know He will ~ peace to you!! :)
I just joined yesterday and was worried about my problem but after coming in this morning it just goes to show,"There is always someone worse off than yourself" and honey, you are in my prayers. I can't even imagine what this must be like for you. I bet that like you said this may be her rock bottom so there's no way to go now but UP!! That would be WONDERFUL. (smile)
By the way, Dora is a cartoon on I believe Nickelodeon that little children (especially little girls) LOVE. She talks in English & then repeats in Spanish so it is very educational for them. I believe she has a boy cousin (?) named Domingo and she has a monkey I believe his name is boots and they go on lots of adventures.
Take care & feel blessed that so many care about you & yours.
WOW, I'm actually surprised that she was openly admitting everything! That's great news...I think. Especially with social services involved...well, you are handling things very well. This was a very disturbing story, with innocent children involved and at risk, it always is....I hope this is her bottom...take care Auntie-you are a God sent!!! Keep us updated!!! We're here for you always....
