Rosie reviews the file. She smiles briefly, feeling a fondness for nine-year- old Archie that comes easily. Archie can tell she likes kids with a feeling. Although she's only six months older than he, he sees her as one of the grownups, someone he can trust. Even if not everyone agrees with how she handles the kids, he trusts her alone. "Archie," Rosie says, "Can we talk about something?" "Whyever would I want to see grub?" Archie replies. Renee gave him that one on a juvenile delinquency case. At breakfast he told her about it and she laughed so hard she peed herself. The requisite sadness is still there in his eyes. It must be heavy to carry around all the time. To not make mistakes or let people down. That\'s something we can all try our best to avoid. Taking another sip of coffee, she turns the form to Bobbi. It seems that Renee is right- the year before, all was well in this household. Alice took care of four young ones and Archie was the troubled one.
