Time For Changes (Day 115)

It's the morning of Noah's first day of school and he's eating breakfast with his mother as she talks to him about what to expect on his first day of school 


Feeling more confident after a chat with his Mum, Noah gives her a hug


And heads off! 


Josette is still thinking over her decision to adopt, and calls in someone she knows will help with the decision 


Her biological mother, Jolene, who gave her up for adoption as a baby because she was a teenager 


Josette tells Jolene that she wants to bring a child into the family the way the Armstrongs adopted her, and wants her perspective as a birth parent 


She explains the details of the adoption and that her hope was that Josette would be adopted by a loving family - so, any birth parent would be glad to have Josette adopt their baby  


After getting all the advice she needs, Josette thanks Jolene for her advice and Jolene heads home 


A little later, an adoption agent comes by to discuss the details and get the ball rolling on the adoption process 
(side note: yes, this is a pet adoption agent. I wish this game had a proper adoption feature) 


The agent asks Josette about her ideal adoption scenario 
She explains that she was involved in an open adoption, and would be willing to adopt a child in that situation so that they could maintain a connection with their birth parents 


After also explaining the details of her family situation, including Moses' death and her sibling's promise of support, the adoption agent confirms her as a candidate for adoption and even says that she thinks she knows the perfect family to match Josette up with 


Josette walks the agent out 


And then decides to get started on the nursery 


She paints the walls and adds a rug 


The child she's going to adopt is a baby girl, and so she paints the room pink! 


Before long Noah returns home 


And he enjoys a slice of apple pie 


While his mother is working on a painting for the new child's bedroom 


Noah has a quick bath


While Josette makes dinner 


The two sit down to eat fish and chips together as Noah talks about his day of school - he didn't do especially well academically, but certainly made some friends! 


Then Josette tells Noah that they've been matched up with a family with a baby girl, who they will be able to bring home tomorrow! 


After dinner, Noah helps his Mother furnish the new bedroom 



Before it's time for bed 


A big day tomorrow, a new member of the family is coming home! 


What will happen next? What will Josette's daughter be like? And will she settle in well? How will Noah react to a new sibling? 


Find out next time!
