March 6, 2000 was the best day of my life! I was going to be induced to have my twins! And i did. Kevin Thomas Christophersen was born at 11:40 pm on march 6 and Kristopher Keith Christophersen was born 22 minutes later at 12:02 am on March 7, 2000. They were my world!!! at 9 months CPS entered my life. My kids were taken. Requirements were... get job, get housing... blah blah blaah... at one point o was even told that if I marry, i can have my kids back. I did. I got my babies back. this went on for 4 years. CPS never released us. then our lives fell apart by that man i was basically told to marry. He kicked us out and HE moved in with my mother! I went on Homeless assistance thru the welfare. 2 days later, CPS took my kids again! I never got them back. On September 12, 2004, my parental rights were taken for good!! I have lived in Hell since then. Almost as if I were in a hurricane passing in and out of the eye for the last 6 and a half years. I now have 5 children living with me but i live in fear everyday that CPS will see me and my kids and see that i am still rather poor and unmarried yet again and take my kids. My kids are also in constant fear of being taken because family has let them know every day to fear the system! One of my children have the same father and vaguely remembers them. She still cries sometimes. Today would be the day we celebrated both birthdays! they would be 11 years old!!!! I am not even allowed to have a picture of them!!!!! NOT EVEN a PHoTO!!!!! I even promised to stay away till they turned 18! And they cant give us a photo once in a while!!!!!!!!!!!! Does CPS steal children? Yes, In So many alternate words and laws, Yes. CPS steals children and lives of the parents and other children they are taken from!!!!!!!!!!! Happy Birthday Babies, No Matter What You Are Told, We LOVE You Both More Than Anyone Could Possibly Love!!!!!!
