      It's interesting that she was so quick to think that the little black girl harmed the baby. Very telling indeed.

      @@lisathomas2151 I dont think it's becauze she is black.Siblings do those things sometimes without realizing they are hurting each other.I remember I sat on my sister when I was a baby...I dont think at 2 years old I wanted to harm my sister I just did it...

    The reason she calls him Thomas Rhett is because that's his first and middle name.
    They are from the south and alot of southerners( including myself) call their kids by first and middle name.
    His parents most likely called him by both names.

    What a wonderful story. My husband Craig and I adopted a little girl from Uganda six years ago. She is truly a miracle child. We had been married 13 years trying and I was never able to have a baby. Savannah is such a good-natured child. All her teachers say each year can we take her home. She has won the best class listener award 3 years in a row. She is so loving and giving. Uganda is a wonderful country to adopt from.
