and then there were two

i knew this day would come but i wasn't prepared for the suddenness of it.  as of last night cliff is back with his mom.  the nephew that i have loving raised for 4 years is no longer in my home.  i will still see him but its not the same.  how do you suddenly switch gears? 

some may not agree with our decision but to be honest there is no compelling reason to not let him go.  my sister is as stable as she will ever be and finally at a place where it will just be her and him.  he craves his mother's attention and affection and i pray she will be able to give him what he needs. 

but in the meantime i will pray for my heart to heal and for his questions to be answered.
