and little boy blue is almost two and very fragile. He has to be able to see me at all times. if I am in the kitchen cooking he will stand there until I am done. Last night he fell asleep on my bed while watching tv so I put him to bed and I myself fell asleep somewhere around 4 am. I woke up this morning and he was in my bed with me and fast asleep.

Today is the first time I actually put him in the bathtub and he was terrified. He was scared of the water and he was shaking so bad I was afraid. I had to wash him because he got grits in his hair and all over his body.

Long story short I really feel unequipped to handle two kids that are this small. He is nothing like most two year olds that I have been around and cared for. He can not really speak other than to say "No" and two curse words.
When I started this journey I really only wanted one little girl and somewhere along the line I got desperate and just wanted a kid.

What would you guys do? Please keep in mind that this could be the exhaustion talking but I do feel like I took on one kid too many.

New placements are always hard at first. Give it a little time and you will soon fall into a routine (sp?). He will learn to trust you and will make bath time a lot easier. Its ok to feel over whelmed. Most of us do lol. Good luck
