I received a call yesterday around 3:30 from DCFS asking if we would be available to take a 2 month old baby boy last night.... 3 hours later 2 week old baby Triston was handed to us. He was born July 20, is half Tongan, half white and cute as a button.
He was removed from his home right before he was given to us, Mom apparently was involved in the death of her one year old child 4 years ago. Subsequently she has lost 3 other children who were adopted by family. The case worker said the judge will most likely terminate her rights to this baby too. The Dad is in prison, so once paternity is established they will ask his family if they would like Baby Triston. If the answer is no, it is very possible that Matt and I will be able to adopt him :)
