Today it actually happened.  I went and picked up Little Bit and Iron Man from the former foster home.  WOW, that itself is odd.  Yes, they had been there for sometime but the agency felt it was best for them to have a home that could provide them more one-on-one attention.

We stopped at McDonald's for dinner...even against my better judgement.  I really didn't want to set an example the first day....but figured it was an easy thing to do.  While there, they both wanted cookies.  I suggested we go home and make brownies that we could then have for snack time before bed.  OH MY... you would have thought that I just gave them the best gift ever.  Iron Man said, "You have bedtime snack at your house?!"  I assured him yes, we do...

These little boys are so small.  Its obvious that even though lack of proper nutrition was part of the issues that landed them into custody in April...it hasn't been much better in foster care so far.  :(
It also saddens me to hear the language they have already about foster homes and respite care and they have had so many experiences.  They should not know so much already.

Lord, please let me help these boys to know you and love you!
