Class Action Lawsuit perharps?

Nothing new at this point to write about as far as my brother and Michelle. I found a website that helps explain what we think is happening and why. http://fightcps.com/2008/11/02/california-class-action-lawsuit-plans/ Since no one that we know has ever been involved in the system, we had no idea of the way it works. This website has opened our eyes to why we think we are in this mess. If we had the money to afford a GOOD attorney, and not have to go with state appointed ones, we would not be where we are. Anyway, right now, I am stuck in CA. They will not let me leave the state with her. She cannot go visit family in AZ, she cannot return with me to Florida. So they are keeping me from my family, as well as keeping her from all of her family. (besides me). My cousin Kim in Az is in hospice due to her Leukemia, and is not expected to survive. (my heart goes out to my extended family that is dealing with this sad situation. She has daughters close to Christina's age, and one will be graduating high school this week) I cannot even take her to go to the funeral. The court thinks a 2 year old should not be going to a funeral. Even tho she is 2 and would really have no concept of what is happening. Instead what she would be experiencing is seeing Grandparents, cousins, aunts, uncles etc that would love to see her, hug her, kiss her, smile for her. There is so much that the court system is doing, that we just shake our heads because we don't understand. By the way, as of this posting, neither my brother or Michelle have been charged with anything. Mike sends me pictures of everything he and the kids are doing. He is doing a great job of keeping them happy in my absence. He has even made meals in the crockpot!!! I'm so proud of him!! Last week he had to work in St. Augustine, so since we do not have someone full time to watch the boys, he took them with him. Looks to me like they had a fun time!

The best part about swimming is how it makes them so sleepy!

I just love how they cuddle together.

While in the hotel, the race was on, and they are completely into NASCAR, so they came up with some kind of betting system on which driver would win, and whose driver that would be.

It has rained alot in Florida the last few weeks, which is good, because we needed it, but it is getting a bit old now. They want to run around outside and play. Here there was a break in the rain and they could go out.

The cat got a hold of Caleb, and did this to his eye. Remember the black eye I got from a cat scratch? Its amazing what cats claws can do. We got one cats claws removed recently, but at a cost of 200, we could not do the other one yet. But it will be soon.

Not soon enough for poor Caleb.

Speaking of the cats... Mike took them for a car ride the other day. You can tell they are brothers, the big one is pinning down the littler one.

Ummm, not sure what they were doing here, other than being silly.

For memorial day Mike bought all these fireworks. They are legal in Florida. However because of all the rain, they didn't get to do as many as they wanted to.

But it looks like they got quite a few out during a break in the rain.

How fun. Wish I was there. Thanks again for everyone that is keeping my family in your thoughts or prayers. We truly appreciate it.
