First I want to thank all of you so very much for all the sweet thoughts and prayers for little Bruce. As most of you know Tuesday we lost our "fight" in court to keep sweet Bruce in our home.
His final day with us will be next Wednesday.
We are so sad and disappointed. Yes, we know that fostering children doesn't mean keeping them...but this case was a bit different.
We know God has a great plan for Bruce and he knew what he was doing when he placed him in our home for these past 6 months. We cling to the idea that everything has a purpose....and that nothing happens by chance.
We now have Bruce's baby sister in our care. She will be 2 weeks on Saturday and is a tiny little blessing. We will love and care for her just as we did with Bruce.
Today Bruce will be starting his "transition" period to the other home. DHS is picking him up from daycare today around 10am for an all day visit at his new home. This will happen today, tomorrow, Monday & Tuesday. They will come to pick him up the final time, from our home, on Wednesday.
Please say a prayer that Bruce will be comforted by God's peace when the DHS worker (whom he has never seen) comes to pick him up this morning. That God is watching over him while he is there today, giving him the courage and strength to play and enjoy his time there.
Please pray for a safe, happy transition for Bruce and our family. Our children, Laynie and Blake are just torn up over this...please pray for their comfort as well.
Thank you again for everything and for being such wonderful supporters of us and our journey with Bruce!

I can't understand why they would be separating the siblings?!?!?! Especially when you are willing to keep them BOTH! The system is messed up. Your sweet boy and his baby sister will be in my prayers. God still is in control. Even though is not what our plan is HIS plan is still in action. And Bruce is in the palm of HIS hand. Praying in NY:::
I know this week will be hard on your family. You're all in my prayers.
