Pray for our baby to STAY ours!

Posted on 01/27/09, 06:25 pm

We need prayers. We go to court on Feb. 11th in Houston, and we'll find out whether or not my half-brother, who I'm raising, will be permanently placed with my husband and I. The state is shooting for total termination of rights for both of his parents. I will have to get on the stand and testify against our father, but I'm okay with doing it so that this little boy will have a chance at a decent life. We aren't perfect parents, but we've been the only parents he's known for the past 10 months. He is three years old and has some severe behavioral problems, and I absolutely know that his bio-parents wouldn't be able to handle him. I can't speak for his 'mother', but our father is not the type of person who should EVER be let around children.

We are hoping for the judge to grant us full custody with the option to adopt, but there is a chance that they'll get to keep their rights and continue to have visitation with my brother. CPS is telling me that those chances are small, but they're there. We need prayers!

Thank you so much, and my prayers go out to each and every one of you!
