It was as hard as I thought it would be to watch Adam's foster parent's say good-bye. They have given the past two years of their life to him and they went home to an empty house. Their hearts are broken and my heart aches for them. Adam cried as he said good-bye and he sobbed in his father's arms, "I do not want to go, I do not want to go." McKenna and I could not help but cry as this father gave his boy to us.
There were no more tears for the rest of the evening. Adam played and laughed with his four new siblings. He hopped into the bathtub on his own and he climbed into his own bed without a tear. He made sure he could see his foster father's pictures but he did not cry. This was an unexpected surprise for all of us.
