I feel so bad for that little baby who will never see his mommy again. You are very kind to consider taking him in.

One word of advise on this, get a lawyer. I would hate for you to take in the child, only to have the dad show up on your doorstep in two years demanding his son back. So please, if you do this, get it legal. It would be awful for this little boy to lose his second "mommy" due to a legal technicality.

Also, yes, we all do need to be reminded over and over of the importance of not drinking and driving.
