As a foster mom, yes, it's tough when your kids go to their forever
homes - I'm suffering now because my study is so quiet as my foster
kibs went to their forever home on Friday and I'm fosterless for the
first time in 5 months. But then you know that you've given them the
best start you can and when one foster goes off to their forever home
it creates a space for the next little needy soul to come in and have
help.

The hardest thing is when you have to make the decision to send them
to Rainbow Bridge, but at least they are sent knowing that someone
loved them for who they were and cared enough to send them with a part
of their heart so they have someone they can wait at the bridge for if
they want to.

Fostering has it's ups and downs, but I love it.
