How I met my foster parents

When I was living with my grandparents,my birth mom got pregnant. One night we were spending the night with my birth parents (which was against the rules), and early in the morning at about 1:00 in the morning I was rudely awakened and I come downstairs to my birth mom in labour! She had one of my brothers at home. They tied her umbilical cord and the ambulance came. Later that day we got a call that she had another boy about a half hour later. She went into labour very early because she didn't have the right prenatal care and she was heavily into drugs and minor drinking. The twins(picture to the right, they were newborns) were 10 weeks premature and were in the hospital for 4 weeks.The twins needed a foster family that could cater to their needs. There was a social worker that got up with Amy and Scott because she was a LPN and could take care of the twins properly. We had visits at my grandparents house and Amy would bring the twins to visit with us. I remember every time she would come, as we got to know her we would always beg to see where the twins lived. Amy said that she would take us at anytime. It then worked out that my grandfather had to go up to court for some reason so we got to go to the Ness's for a weekend. I was never so excited, we got to dress up and go to church. It was foreign to me but I though it was the fun thing to do. We learned new things. I learned how to straighten my hair and use my imagination. We went back with my grandparents and begged to go back. Finally my grandparents went to drop us off at our parents one time and there was a social worker there. She then and there decided that right there was proof for us to be removed. I was so excited and couldn't wait to go to the Ness's house again. It was all because of the birth of my twin brothers that my life would be changed forever:)

  2. That's really cool. I'm glad your life was changed and you were brought to the Ness's because if you weren't I wouldn't be blessed with you as a friend. It's amazing how God works!
