No child should be deprived of having the care and love, the respect, and family values you clearly uphold for your children and Baby Boy.<br />I take the inspirational words of Charlie Chaplin:<br />"We all want to help one another, human beings are like that.<br />We all want to live by each other's happiness, not by each other's misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone...<br />We think too much and feel too little:<br />More than machinery we need humanity;<br />More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness.<br />Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost!"<br />you have my best wishes for what it's worth :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-88750507370765881752012-01-14T11:56:24.475-08:002012-01-14T11:56:24.475-08:00Hope everything goes well for you guys. you have a...Hope everything goes well for you guys. you have an awesome family....I hope to get to see Right to Love where I am but highly doubt it. <br /><br />Baby Boy is so lucky to have his Daddy Jay and Daddy Bryan back in his life.Angela M Klinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-26916327695561920552012-01-09T18:38:36.493-08:002012-01-09T18:38:36.493-08:00Hope you are able to get the parental rights termi...Hope you are able to get the parental rights terminated but if this is like most cases he will be sent back home to his real familyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-57525586972353820742012-01-09T12:14:51.210-08:002012-01-09T12:14:51.210-08:00I am hoping all of their homophobia explodes in th...I am hoping all of their homophobia explodes in their faces this year. It is not 2004. The fact that creating a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage is at the top of their priority list is telling. We all need to be vocal in exposing their hate and hypocrisy. Voters need to see blogs like yours Bryan... Thanks for showing the world what REAL gay families and gay parents look like.<br /><br />So glad your little peanut is safe!! :)Jim Stonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12387924451130690320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-25161518597186788792012-01-09T06:07:19.350-08:002012-01-09T06:07:19.350-08:00As far as I'm concerned the whole GOP can go t...As far as I'm concerned the whole GOP can go to the hell they are trying to send others to. I know adult survivors of abusive straight parents. I have known abused and neglected children. No child should be unwanted and neglected and abused. We GLBT people are the ones who, by and large, are raising the children unwanted by the likes of Mr. Frothy Mix's "ideal family." <br /><br />He is a monster. <br /><br />Bless you two for taking on these children and making them your own. Here's hoping you get to keep and adopt Baby Boy. <br /><br />Blessings,<br /><br />Starshadow, mom and grandma.Starshadowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12825710381713019921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-17357200068859479702012-01-08T13:41:47.057-08:002012-01-08T13:41:47.057-08:00Santorum has no chance of winning.

Note that he was even booed by College Republicans for an anti-gay remark this weekend. But he isn't going away any time soon. He obliges the media with the stereotypes they love reporting, and he needs no money to remain in a campaign he has no intention of actually winning. So there will be another six months of Santorum quotes. I try to think of it as entertainment, a sad comedy, but not truly representative of the real future.SedonaMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07698584076777189601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-46927523277071166972012-01-08T03:12:19.918-08:002012-01-08T03:12:19.918-08:00You guys are amazing parents, I hope baby boy gets...You guys are amazing parents, I hope baby boy gets to stay with you forever.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-38384611218192864682012-01-08T00:17:05.342-08:002012-01-08T00:17:05.342-08:00Santorum is an embarrassment.

It just kills me that people like Santorum would just say insane things that just pop out of their mouths like, "Those kids are being robbed of something" when being raised by gay parents. It is very clear thatgay parents are just as capable of raising kids and nothing is being robbed of them. There are people, like the baby boy's parents, who don't know jack about raising kids and would abuse them and lie to escape punishment. What about them? Oh, they don't matter, it's the sexuality we want to focus on and demonize. <br /><br />Jay and Bryan, you two are so awesome and it kills me when people hurt children, especially little baby boy, and i'm glad you're there to take him in. I just want to claw the mother's face to be honest, but i know you might not want me to and that i should always restrain myself.Timtheskeptichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14602934976026981435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-44948691826075406072012-01-07T22:00:05.230-08:002012-01-07T22:00:05.230-08:00You two would make very good pairents and family f...You two would make very good pairents and family for Little Boy. He has been through to much with his other "family." I know for shour he will be very happy to be apart of your family. Mr. Santorum, should do his research on cases that are simaler situations as Little Boy or other kid(s) as much as possible. So he can find some kind of persentage, on the kid(s) that they were happier to be in a home where pairants & family that loves them NO matter what kind of pairants & family they are.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-40455588698785110622012-01-07T20:36:39.895-08:002012-01-07T20:36:39.895-08:00I just watched the debates.

Have they never met a gay person like us, or never known a single person who was adopted? Not a single one of them makes any sense. They just spout buzzwords.<br /><br />Anyway, as always thank you for sharing your lives and for giving children a safe haven, and for being you. I hope to adopt some day too. Thoughts, prayers and hugs to all of you, especially little baby boy. I look forward to hearing his progress.
