Wow...i had no idea so many people responded. First let me thank you for your support. Although I agree that the best interest for this baby at this time is to stay in the home he has been living in (mine). We love him so much and I can see how he has bonded to me. He follows my voice and smiles the minute he sees me. If he is upset when others are holding him I can always calm him down. Anyway, you all know how that is..... I have been trying to have a positive attitude about this move because i know that the family he goes to will be overjoyed to have the opportunity to parent such a beautiful boy. But many of you bring up such a great point. What's best for the baby? I thought the goal is perminancy right? Well, we are willing to provide that for him but the "system" says that he needs to be moved. I don't agree but am trying to prepare myself. My two children were in foster care for the first 5-6 months of their lives (living in guatemala). I am really glad to be able to care for someone elses baby the way my children were cared for. It's like coming full circle. He has been such a blessing in our lives and I just pary everyday that God will protect him.
