Saturday, Day 4

Last night the boys had a rough night. I feel so bad for them...

We really have to watch them when they are eating because they stuff as much as they can in their mouth. So, so sad to see this. How can someone not feed their children? This I just don't have an understanding for.

I told my husband that I keep looking at the boys and wonder what in the world these little guys are thinking. I just don't know what would be going through a 2 and 3 year olds mind that are in this situation.

One thing that I know for sure, these boys love their momma. I pray that their mom and dad can work their service plan and get it together for all four of these kids.

The older boys were really scared that first day that I was with them. The 9 year old told me that he was afraid this was permanent. I thought this was a very strange word for him to be using and to be using in the right context made me wonder if these boys had been in care before.
This same sibling held his head and told me he felt like he was going crazy....using very soft words to express this to me. Again, I did not tell him that it was going to be okay but instead I replied that I could understand feeling this way and there would be people helping him through these feelings.

The boys were very well behaved today when we made a quick trip to my parents house. We did not stay very long bu the boys seemed to do okay.
