please don't forget me





late this afternoon, i received a call saying that mrs k will probably be leaving us at the end of the week. i was told that it was against the will of her personal advocates. i was encouraged to tell mrs k the news. as we were driving to pick up nate i told her. to my surprise, she was not too happy and became teary eyed. k expressed to me, that although she wants to live with her mom, she was afraid of never seeing us again. she asked me to let her have visitation with us. not knowing how to answer that request, i put her on the phone with her advocate. all we can do is see what her mom and cps say. the rest of the evening was spent with k singing sad love songs that went something like this...."don't worry i'll come looking for you. please don't ever forget me". it breaks my heart.

  5. That is just truly sad. I can't imagine having a kid for such a short time and just having them up and yanked away..........I am sorry about that. And even more sorry for the little girl who has to be taken from place to place so often. I respect anyone who takes on foster kids.

  6. You're getting better at getting your heart broken. By the time they give you one for keeps none of us will believe it.
