PER CURIAM.

      AFFIRMED. See J.B.P. v. Dep't of Children & Families, 868 So. 2d 1289, 1290

(Fla. 4th DCA 2004) (“Because the complete record is sufficient and enables us to review
the final order of termination, even with only a single omnibus finding, we have elected

not to reverse in this case.     We caution the Judges in this District presiding over

termination of parental rights cases, however, not to infer that the failure to make specific

factual findings will always be harmless. In most cases-although not in this one-such

findings are indispensable.”).

ORFINGER and EDWARDS, JJ., and JACOBUS, B.W., Senior Judge, concur.
