Best book - Three Little Words, by Ashley Rhodes-Courter. She was adopted from foster care at age 12 in Florida after spending 7 years in the system and she is now 25. It gives great insight into how it feels to be a kid in the system, how the system can fail a child, and what they feel like to be adopted.

NEWEST ADDITION, Daughter, 18, moving in with us and will be adopted as an adult because her agency was a pain and wouldn't let us adopt her when she was 16!!! Sometimes you just have to outlast them. . .
