Having a New Brother

My family became a foster family in December, a little bit after Christmas we got a Foster Child, he'll be known as "Z" on the blog. Well Z is the youngest in the family, and has some emotional issues, that the whole family is getting used to. We're also learning that even though Z goes to school, he doesn't know a lot that in my family we know and share openly. Yes I do admit, Z can drive me insane some days, and most of the weeks I can't wait until I can go to the library, but I never really realized what my father always said to me about my tone of voice, until Z came here. As most of you know, we're a very strong Republican family and share news about politics and current events daily at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Z on the other hand, has not been around that. For example Vice President Joe Biden, was on a talk show and was asked about his favorite movie, it took Biden a couple minutes to answer.

After the clip was done playing Z asked "Who's Joe Biden?" Mom and I were stunned, how could this boy not know who Biden is, but yet tell us why Obama should be President. They're has been many comments like that, and they still amaze us. Z isn't as bad as he sounds, he's actually pretty nice, he likes going to church, loves going to the library, and plays basketball. I have to say from a teenage standpoint having another brother isn't that bad. Well on his good days.

There will be more updates with Z and the family, hopefully good ones :)

Until Next Time
