They thought it was best to keep us together, but it was hard for a family to take three children. Kennedy Homes was one of the best things that could happen to me. I didn't feel like an outsider anymore.

It's difficult to know how many cousins I may have that I've never seen. From their side, I would imagine they had some guilt about us. I always wondered why they didn't take us and why they let us go to foster homes.
