[blparent] Choosing a daycare provider?

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

Just check carefully, because here in Colorado, the couple from church 
couldn't even leave their foster child with a grandparent for an hour to go 
to the store.  The grandparents ended up going through the approval process 
just so they could take their grandson-to-be out for the day once in a 
while.
