A Tale of Two Kindergarteners

This past (long) weekend we had a repeat visit with our first foster kiddo, Ace. Just like Carrot Top, Ace happens to be in Kindergarten. And that's pretty much the only thing the two have in common. Carrot top is all, "hug me, love me, I'd do anything for you mama." And Ace is pretty much, "Fook that! I ain't gotta listen to you." Adorable.

Okay, he isn't THAT bad ALL the time. He had his sweet moments, like when he helped Christian tie his shoes :) But overall, I believe we got ourselves another dose of the Ace Man so we could be reminded just how lucky we are to have a kid like Carrot Top. Especially since it appears he may be here a very long time.

My sister and I have both worked in the foster care system at some point in our careers, it is tough, but the impact on the kids of being in f/c is so significantly worth it. hope it goes well
