New Year, new laws


Our Foster son, Adam, is growing and getting cuter everyday! His mother is making great strides in her life and now has weekend visits with his Mom. Yeah for Families! They have a good chance for happiness together. Though, he's starting to show confusion from visits, and our heart aches for his inability to understand or verbalize whatever he might be feeling.
The State of Arizona's CPS has passed new streamlined laws (in effect soon) that will shorten the drama for children in care. Parents of Children under 3 will now have only 6 months to get their act together and get their children back. The state has deemed any time after that is unhealthy for children who need to establish a bond with a permanent family. We hold our breath to see the out come of this law, but this will change so much. Potentially they will need more couples ready to be a forever family to these wonderful young children. Ever thought about it? You should.
