RE: Mountains and Valleys: Our Journey Through Foster Care (Part 1: Being Called)

in #parenting7 years ago (edited)

It's one thing for someone to do right by their own offspring, but you have gone out of your way to take on the amazing responsibility of caring for children in need of love.

I ( @thatsweeneyguy ) spent ages 2-4 in foster care (that's a long story for another day), and vividly remember a couple of the families I was with.

Raising children is one of the greatest experiences anyone can have. Best of luck to you and your little ones!

Thank you for sharing this with the #steemmoms tag!

It's been an amazing journey full of ups and downs. There is a quote that goes something like: "A child born to another woman calls me mommy. The magnitude of that tragedy and the depth of that privilege are not lost on me." (I'm going to have to find that quote now to see who said it and if I got it right!) It's a heartbreaking cycle of love and loss and love! Thank you for your comment!
