Every Wednesday I feature a child recently highlighted by a local Wednesday's Child newscast to share the stories of children from around the country who are waiting for a family. My hope is that this can broaden exposure for the children highlighted, but also serve as a reminder that these children represent thousands of children currently in the foster-care system.

TEAM SKATER NO MORE, AND AN UPDATE ON THE HELP (OURS, NOT THE MOVIE) | ON THURSDAY’S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM AUGUST 2011.
ON THURSDAY'S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM AUGUST 2011. First of all, might I say a big THANK YOU for all of the advice and feedback you gave me over our childcare issues, and the skateboarding thing. It was tremendously helpful and really did give me a lot of clarity. The boys have finished out their week in skate camp, but I’ve decided that we are going to hold off on skating as a hobby for now. I know, I know. Many of you opined about how kids should be able to choose . . .

YOU JUST CAN’T GET GOOD HELP THESE DAYS | ON THURSDAY’S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM AUGUST 2011.
ON THURSDAY'S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM AUGUST 2011. Warning: whining about first-world problems to follow.Finding consistent childcare has become increasingly more difficult with four children. It’s not that they are hard kids. They are really pretty typical It’s just that collectively . . . four kids are really hard. Care in point: our nanny just quit. Again.
