Five years ago Hazel Begay, the childrenÕs mother, asked Halbert Brown if he could watch them for two weeks, Òtwo weeks never came,Ó says Halbert. ÒI think they should all be raised together,Ó says Halbert while sitting among his adopted family, ÒI didnÕt ask for the kids, I hate to say this, but their mother just sort of abandoned them, so I had to care for them, what else was I suppose to do?
