Christmas and Birthdays are the 2 things kids in Foster Care are robbed of every year. My last Christmas with my family and Birthday was when I was 12. As an adult now it is still very hard and I still do not like either. But hey at least I do not spend a fortune on either. But now my children have a value for these special days as I am sure to make sure they have fun. They do not get a ton of gifts. I give each one money so they can buy what they want and allow them to exchange gifts with each other. But we do not break the bank for it. It is more about spending time with each other than anything else. As that is the one thing that I always wished for more than any gift. I am working on telling you my story and I should have it done this weekend. It is currently only half done.
