I have a very good reason for my blog absence lately. Not because I am not busy, or have nothing to post… on the contrary I have many things to share with you. For today I wanted to pass on the good news that nearly 3 weeks ago I took my first foster care placement making me a mother of a 6 year old little girl. It has taken so much time for the two of us to adjust. We are taking things one day at a time and have had many ups and downs. I wish I could say more, but there are many confidentiality limitations to being a foster parent, understandably.
While going through this adjustment period, I have had little to no time to sit behind a computer, because my nights are cherished for sleeping and my days are consumed by a child with many needs. Being a single parent, while working from home is not easy… But the good thing is I am slowing getting back on track and things are beginning to be accomplished. It is the little things that make me happy these days. Here is a picture of her, that was approved to be posted on my blog.
