I'd say amen & amen to ALL ...Thankyou Sara! I'd say amen & amen to ALL that you've written.<br /><br />Having had our foster son since 12 weeks of age (he's now 23 & still lives with us) has taught me much. We consider him as our youngest son, but as also his birth parents eldest son. His parents both have intellectual disabilities & simply couldn't care for a child.<br /><br />He has 2 younger siblings with another foster family, whom we now consider to be part of our family too. It's a blessing to have all 3 families together for outings. Now that they're all older it consists of going to a cafe for a drink or meal together. There's one this coming Saturday. <br /><br />May God really help you through the emotional, mental & physical roller coaster, as you deal with the blessings & challenges of young children & fostering. God bless & welcome to the RM devotional writers team. Will see you there! Gentle hugs. ♥ Lotsoluv KerrynAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
