One is 4, the twins are 3 and the baby is 1. They were taken away from their mother due to severe neglect. They still see her every week. They have been with their foster parents for almost 3 months now. I have worked with children for over 10 years, but never with adopted children. I have read a couple of your postings and I was wondering what your take is on how to raise the children as opposed to raising children who have been with their parents since birth. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.<br /> Liz Hi,

Our first child, and boy oh boy is this hard. My husband has to keep reminding me that Gabe is 16 and needs to do 16 year old things...well mostly. :) I do enjoy sending him to the store for me on his bike though. :) We have a brand new 16 year old!
