I just got off the phone with my friend Jennifer, who is new foster mommy, and has three kids in her home. I am so happy for her! Being in the mommy role is so great for her, she is such a great person and was like a second mommy to my boys when we lived in Texas. I got to see pictures of the kids, they are so cute and sweet, especially the baby! There are people who should be parents, and people who shouldn’t; there are people who can have kids, and people who can’t. Why is it you see people who should have kids, who can’t; and people who shouldn’t have kids, who can?

I finally went to bed last night at 4am, I was too busy reading/crying about this sweet little boy, Isaac L. The name is dear to me, my cousin has a son named Isaac F. who was adopted through the foster care system. But that is where the similarities end. The before mentioned precious child was not taken from an abusive family, but one where the family made some mistakes. The parents fixed them, but their children were still removed and their son was murdered because of the foster care system; one that was in place to protect children who are in harms way. I will not go into details, the above link has the details. My heart goes out to these parents. They lost their 9 children to the system sworn to protect them, but two of their children lost their lives unnecessarily, and suffered abuse. I have so much more to say, but I need to collect my thoughts before saying anything more, I am LIVID!
