You are so young, you should have your mama supporting you, not making you suffer so much. I’m so sorry, you are a amazing mama and sister ❤

I am sorry that you’re still dealing with issues with your mom. I wanted to cry when you said you even breastfed him as a baby, since I know you had an infant then too. It shows how much you loved him and cared for him even more than his own mother. It sounds like your mom will never change - do you think you would want to take him, or is it better for him to stay with the foster family? I know it is complex. Just know you are doing a good job.

I pray that a miracle happens and your aunt gets your brother ,and that way you get to see him too coz it shows that you really care about him.

Oh my gosh, your girls are so cute🥹💕 You‘re doing a great job as a mom❤

We took my son to playgroup at his kindy before he started there and it helped so much! Thinking of you and your little bro ❤️‍🩹

Good morning Yasmin happy Thursday morning and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you

If you need to put air in a tire that often there's probably a leak. You should take it to a tire place and have them check it out.

You are so strong dealing with this.

I think you’re the mom you never had. You’re doing great girl.

Your daughters are starting to really grow up. Analia's voice has started to change since I last recalled.

Oh my gosh, I love love love the station! I make a special trip even though it's not close to where my parents live, every time I visit them in Ocean pines. We should get our girls to meet up next time!

Cute play closet for the girls! Made me want to be a little kid again 🥰

I’m really sorry to hear about the continued struggles with your brother. I hope things eventually work out. Side question.. have you ever tried “Active Repair?” I struggled with stress acne for years. This product was a game changer for me. I see other influencers promoting it. Give it a try if you have not already.

May God protect and keep you and your family. I'm sorry you're in this wake of some of your mums decisions I truly pray that Jesus will be with you all and give you peace and healing! ❤

Hi Yasmin, I love your Vlogs

I’m so sorry that this is the way things have gone with your family. I just adopted my brother in law (2 years) this month after him being our foster child since he was removed for the same reasons as your brother at 2 months old. The process is so long and unfair to the babies, while it seems like bio parents are rewarded for manipulating the system sometimes

Hope things work out with your brother too! ❤

The girls are getting so big 🥺

I’m so sorry Yasmyn. I can’t imagine the emotional turmoil you’re going through. I hope you can keep a sibling relationship with your little brother no matter what happens. As a mother that has adopted from foster care and sets up multiple times a month for my a child to spend time with her bio family, it’s truly possible for those bonds to remain and grow even if a child isn’t adopted by family. The system can hinder the contact too while the case is ongoing, and in our case, the contact and visits transformed in the best ways after the adoption. Of course family placement is ideal, but hopefully hearing some decent outcomes will make the possibility of things going a different direction feel less scary. ❤❤

I wish you take your brother to stay with you and I'm sure your girls will loved that to have him with you

Tretinoin has been a game changer, definitely not an overnight change but over several months it has really helped! Sending all the love and positive thoughts to your family. My dad just got clean after 15+ years, so it can happen!

Hi Yasmin! You are amazing! If you’re able to, will you link the top you’re wearing at the end of the vlog? 😊

Did anyone notice the caption of the video says "When Your Squishmallow Gets you a mom" lmfao 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Agree with the comment that you probably have a nail or something causing a slow leak if you have to put air in same tire every few weeks! Hopefully, it can be patched. Does your brother have a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA)? Have they moved to concurrent planning of reunification with mom and also adoption/terminating parental rights? Hope whichever family member who will want to care for him if they move to terminate rights is becoming licensed as a foster parent- especially if out of state. That should make the transfer faster if they do eventually go that route and are having visits/interaction with him. You could easily be looking at another year of foster care with eventual termination of parental rights and the Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children (ICPC) if he will be placed out of state from Maryland. The ICPC can take months between two states. Honestly, the best bet would be for family living in Maryland to step in and foster him now. Although family is supposed to be first, longer he stays with a foster parent some judges will say "why didn't family step up?" while in foster care. Courts/social workers do not follow the federal timelines for permanency for children in foster care in Maryland. He should have already had permanency after two years. They give parents chance after chance because they are reluctant to terminate parental rights. And, they don't want to try and terminate rights unless they are sure they will win the case.

ya'll should do a q/a

It's a hard situation been through it personally this past year and lost my case went way too fast and my rights were ran over they said bc of his age and he needed permenancy so how can your brother be going on that long goes to show states make up their own rules and I did everything I was supposed to and still don't have my child 😢

Do you have a foster care review board? They can review the case I know we have one in Michigan

Thats sweet you get one on one time and have mum friends. Sorry its hard with your mum. Mind yourself

Thats horrible that k cant adopt him. That makes me sick bc G knows this would be the best situation... 😢 just keep doing your best with your kids xo

Thank you for updating. Please; be cautious in the captions with wording. Using "really" can be interpretated as opposit of untrue. I do wish you peace of mind and calm, in order to have a sane and solid family life. Take good care and stay strong

It hurts me to hear that you and your family members are still fighting for your baby brother. Yes he might be in a loving home but you guys as family members who want to care for him and you guys just want to watch him grow should just get the right to have him. I am so sorry your family is still fighting.

I was taken from my biological family and raised by abusive foster family. Believe it or not even as a baby and toddler, it's traumatic and stays with you! I carried memories with me, I didn't know who the people in my memories were, until, I met my biological family in my late thirties. Those memories were validated by different family members. Just saying, some of us do remember stuff from our toddler and baby years.

Ana is ELLIE

Legally the court has 18 month for this child to have a permanent place. Id ask them about it.

My mother didn’t raise me same with my dad they both got me taken away at 10 months lost full custody bc of their drugs and locking me in a room as a baby. my grandma raised me since I was 10 months and I’m almost 23 now in March

Your middle one same exactly look like her dad 😊☺️ Who agrees? By the way, where is he? Is he still part of their life? 🤨🤔🤔

❤😊 😘🤗

9:00 so well said

If your brother is in a happy home with foster family and they want you to adopt him maybe that’s where he should stay. Ripping a child away from his only family seems cruel.

I am so so sorry that the F system is failing your little brother the care system does not help children

❤️‍🩹

Wait did I hear wrong or did you say ‘and I even breastfeed him’ when you went to see your brother be born? You are such a good sister and mom ❤

The system is so screwed up. You are the living breathing example that she has NEVER been reliable. You are her oldest adult child, and they’re still acting like they need to wait more time? It’s been 22 years. I’m sorry

My sister got her first kid taken away and my aunt adopted her

Yasmine, you may find my words a little stupid, but wouldn’t it be better for your little brother to stay with you, especially since you love him so much and care about him instead of adopting? I know that you have children and other things, but it is better for him that you adopt him, especially since he will be happy with your children and always play with them.

Stop showing your kids in your videos!!!

I’m not ok with you throwing out that much personal into your family issues.. Because actually. Honestly. You are not the best right now & doing nothing to change it and have no plans to other than no is not safe which everyone already knows; so it is none of your business to put his life out there. It pisses me off. Your brothers story is his own to tell. Not yours. Focus on your life.
