Family Ties

Posted in Jen & Ellen | No Comments »

Learned a couple things today. Learned that there is a county sponsored visitation program for folks like us. Its called Family Ties. Either supervised or monitored visitation can be arranged through Family Ties with an order from the court. Supervised visitation permits a non-custodial parent to spend time with the child at the Family Ties Center. Monitored visitation permits unsupervised visitation for one or more days.

The whole visitation thing is bound to be overrated anyway, right? I don’t know how to visit. What’s a visit? Going to a movie? I can’t do that. Now, wash the car together – I could do that … scrubbing away, side by side, with a nice wet soapy wrag … for a nice wet soapy wrag fight! Now, that would be a visit.

There’s a book waiting for me in the bedroom. So, I won’t be watching Lost tonight. And I won’t be spending the rest of the night here writing the two of you.
