Sadness

We are having to return our grandson, Colby, to Tennessee to a birth family that really didn't do what they should have according to the law but....they are from Tennessee and could say whatever they wanted. The judge didn't site Tennesse law as the reason for returning him. Enough said, the judge will beheld accountable but it is ultimately Colby who will suffer the most. We love him so much and never dreamed this would happen.

Lana will be going with the social worker to turn him over, Traci and Jake cannot bear anymore heartache. That's just what mom's do for their family. Thanks for all of the prayers to keep Colby, now, please pray for swift healing. LDS Family Services made some mistakes but the judge only heard what he wanted to hear and accepted the lies. And he said he had the best interest of the child. As usual, the rights of parents supercede the rights of the child. Laws need to change so we don't end up with such damaged people.

I just don't know what to say except there is a profound sadness and grief in my heart right now. Traci and her family are truly blessed to have you and Aunt Lana so close to help them through this. I am praying for all of you that you will have the strength and faith that you will need this weekend. Love you!
