Well....

I got a phone call today from our social worker saying that the little boy that just left us isn't doing well at his new home and they want him moved. She wanted to know if we would take him back. After the shouts of joy from all of my kids I called her back and said sure. So as of Thursday afternoon we will once again have 6 kids. All of them fairly high maintenance, just some a little more than others.

On a heartbreaking note: I met the mother of the two month old today. She asked if she could come live with me so she could be with her baby. Because of their privacy issues I can't tell you why they were separated, but having to tell a crying 16 year old mother I couldn't do it was not one of the easiest things I have ever had to do. Please pray for her for things to work out and for me so that in some way I can minister to her.

On a very happy note: I received pictures today from my friend who has been trying to adopt the foster kids she has had for almost 3 years. The pictures were taken in the judges office when they signed the final adoption papers. Sometimes the sysem works , it just isn't in any hurry.
