Boy is this thread hitting home for me. I have been praying and mulling back and forth about a almost 13 yo boy myself. When I worked in a group home 3 years ago he was there. I was under the impression he was getting adopted by a couple and I found out a few months ago they decided not to go through with it. I inquired about him and everyone told me I was crazy. Now he has come into my life again. I just happened to call my sister tonight and she said "hey, I just looked outside and I think I see "T" in my yard"! Then she yelled outside and asked if his name was "T" and he said yes and she put him on the phone. We were both so exicited. Apparently he lives right down the street from her and at first he didn't know who I was until I mentioned the group home and the kids's names then my sister said his eyes got huge and he recognized me. BTW, we live in another state now and I'm wondering if the agency would allow him to visit me a couple of weeks this summer. We would really like to adopt him, but we want to make sure we can handle his behaviour issues. We don't want to be another family to let him down. I also have a 7 y.o. boy and a 8 y.o. girl.
