Fransisco


here is a picture of the baby i was watching today. my visiting teacher has a foster baby, named Fransisco, hes really cute. long eye lashes, very chubby. but has a broken leg since saturday (the 15th i think). poor little guy, only 4 months old. my guess is abuse, since babies dont break easily. at least bones, that young, their bones are still probably pretty soft. it would have to take a lot to break one. anyways, so he wears this little harness thing around him that keeps him in line so to speak. protects the femur*sp* (broken leg). anyways, its sort of hard to cuddle him because im scared i'll hurt the poor little lamb. but he was a pretty happy baby, and he fell asleep on me, so that gave him a lot of bonus points. hes so cute! and the kids were all really excited to hold him.
