Brady

The last several weeks have been a whirlwind, thus the lack of posting. :) Long story short, Mark and I decided that we were not the best fit for Brady and requested he be moved to another foster family. It was a gut-wrenching decision and extremely stressful all the way around. Brady moved to the new foster family seamlessly and we actually got to see him at one of the support groups. His case has shaken my trust in the foster system all together as he recently was returned home to his mother who NEVER took responsibility for her actions. No matter what I or the other foster mom said, the system made up their mind to return him. Mark and I are extremely disappointed with how many checks and balances simply wasn't there in Brady's case. It won't surprise me to find out that at some point in the future Brady will either re-enter the foster system or become seriously injured. I know everything is in God's hands and have no choice but to entrust Brady to the Lord. Sometimes the system sucks and doing what is in the child's best interest isn't the top priority!
