We have court for our foster son on Thursday. We were REALLY confident about court until about an hour ago when we got a call from our worker. Things are starting to look iffy now.

This momma's heart is breaking. I don't WANT him to go back to his parents. That thought makes me sick to my stomach to be totally honest. I really don't know what will happen in court but I am fearing the worse and trying to prepare my heart.

The worker is upset too. She can only do so much and it is up to the judge and DA. It would be different if these parents actually cared for him and were trying everything to be a better parent to him. They are not. It is a game to them.

This is our forth foster placement. Only the second one that I really allowed myself to get attached to. I am scared, upset, angry.........you name it, I am feeling it. AND it is not helping that he is teething and really cuddly right now. Ugh. I hate this.

Anyways, prayers and positive thoughts would be appreciated. I will report what I can (which will be limited) after court.

Thanks.
 
I will be thinking of you. Our 17 year old foster daughter is just like our own and we went through the same thing a couple of years ago. I couldn't imagine how you are doing it with a little guy who can't protect himself. Good luck in court. I will be sending out positive thoughts for sure.
 
Aww I can only imagine how you must be feeling Tara. I kinda know how you are feeling with the court situation and how unpredictable it can be as my sister had her rights terminated for her oldest son. My husband and I really would have liked to have taken him in but we couldn't. I hope that things go well for your family in court. I can never understand why parents do not treasure having a child. So many people I know take that for granted. It is sad really.
 
I can only imagine how hard it is. I'll be keeping you in my thoughts and sending good vibes your way. That baby deserves you, I sincerely hope you can stay together.
 
I will pray for you, and for the judge to see clearly where the child's best interests lie. Hugs.
 
Oh Tara my heart is just hurting for you, little man, and your whole family right now. You all will be in my prayers. (((hugs))) to you, sweetie!
 
Sending prayers your way. I know how you feel. We went through it a few times and it is such a roller coaster of emotions. (((HUGS)))
 
I'll be thinking of you and keeping you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. I hope so much things work out. ((big hugs))
 
I can't imagine what you are going through. But my heart is aching for you and I will be thinking about you all and hoping the Judge will see that you are the better choice for this child! *hugs*
 
So sorry. It should be a lot easier for folks who truly love a child to keep the child in a place where he is safe and cared for. I'll be praying.
 
Ahhh! I have a friend here who is going through a similar ituation right now. Its looking like they will be able to adopt their foster boy who they have had for over a year now. These poor babies need good homes like you guys! Prayers and hugs being sent your way!!
 
Oh Tara! I'm so sorry you're dealing with this. I can't even imagine how worried you are. You will most definitely have my prayers throughout this ordeal.
 
Oh, Tara! I cannot even begin to imagine the emotions you must be feeling right now! I will definitely be praying!!!
 
I can't imagine what you are going through. But hang in there! You're strong and will get through this.

My thoughts and prayers are with you.
