          I found out today that a homeschooling family I recently met has reluctantly released this young man, whom they had hoped to adopt, into the foster care system.  He needs a lot of help and therapy, and this family cannot provide what he needs for a whole host of reasons.  They are devastated; they have tried very hard to make this adoption work.  Please pray for everyone involved.
