i knew this giel since she was in the 1st grade.my mom was a foster mom for her and her sister.their dad was on deployment and mother in jail.my mom worked at pearl harbor elementary,their neighbor called cps and said they were always left home alone while their dads in iraq.cps pulled them out of school and was trying to take them away.so my mom stepped in and took them.as well as her neices 4 kids since she was a drug addict.being the big hearted person that my mom is she askd to not get money from the state.anyways i have not seen her or sister since we left hawaii.all the 6 kids my mom had had to go back to hawaii when we moved to cali since the state owned them.im just so amazed at how her and her sister have grown and the girls they are today.as for the other four my mom took care of,one is in jail and the other two stay with there bf.i just cant believe i practically seen all 6 grow up.
oh and the one above and her sister,we gave them both samoan names,they kept them.they speak a little samoan STILL.and they claim to be tausagas.shows how much one strange family can become your real family.
