We were heartbroken when DCFS knocked unexpectedly on our door to pick her up. We did not even receive a phone call telling us that they were coming. The judge gave her back to her Mother. I've been in touch with another county to let them know that we would like to have an infant as a foster child,but nothing has happened so far. We really would like to have an infant to foster then adopt but who can we turn to for help. Is there any help? Is there hope when we've been told there are no infants in our county? Our hearts are broken today after giving up the baby we had for ten days. We had gotten attached to her and she was our blessing from God. We were thrilled beyond words to hear that we would get to keep her for up to a year.
