The passed 18 days have been difficult, rewarding, challenging, tender, frustrating, full, and much more. These boys have had challenges in their lives and their behaviors show that. Mixing their issues with our family has been a challenge. There have been fights and arguments, attitudes and eye rolls, but there have also been unexpected hugs, smiles, and lots of squishy hand holding. I will miss these boys. They have taught me much in 18 days.
Tomorrow the boys go to stay with an Aunt. Family is always the best placement. I hope that she will let us be involved in their lives. I told the boys last night that we would be friends forever. I hope that is true. We will tell them tonight that they are moving. I don't know what to expect. I hope it goes well.
A very good friend said it best..."It will be difficult for them to leave, but impossible for them to stay."
