You don't just do it... you have to go through the courts, as they placed the child into the foster care system, only they can remove them.

Hire a lawyer... its not a do-it-yourself thing.

Ok yeah I know I would have to hire one but just want to make sure I would have a chance if I fought

You have a chance... but I can't guess how much. My guess is they would rather have a long term or permanent placement than the foster care one assuming you can provide evidence you can provide a good and stable home to their satisfaction.
