As most of you already know for the past few months we have been blessed by the Lord to have this wonderful little girl living with us. Everything we have done has been in the best interest of Emily and we have strived to give her everything she needs and the right tools to carry on successfully in life. We are so proud of Emily and the progress she has made in the last few months. We are so proud of the friends she is making at school, her social interactions, and her ability to follow the rules and make good choices without being micromanaged. Unfortunantly the parenting decisions that we, the therapist, and the school have been making regarding Emily is not what the family that gave her to us wanted. Because of this Emily was taken from our home this morning by the police and her parents. We don't know where she is headed or what her future plans are because there has been no communication about this from the family to us but we love her and hope for the best in every aspect of her life, and we leave this situation knowing that we did exactly as our Heavenly Father wanted and we gave not only our best but literally everything we had. We hope that all future decisions that are made are in Emily's best interest and that she continues to progress as the wonderful daughter of God she is.

Heidi I have no idea how you must be feeling. I could probably imagine that it hurts though. She has had such a profound influence on your life and in your home I am sure. We will keep you in our prayers as well as Emily. I guess all things happen for a reason we just have to put our trust in the Lord! Knowing you guys, I know that Emily received so much love and has probably learned so much from you! Hang on to the good times!!!
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to hear about this trying time for you guys. I also can't imagine how it must feel and we will remember Emily in our prayers that everything will work out well for her. She's a beautiful girl and it's easy to tell that you love and care about her. Let us know if there is anything we can do for you.
