Read excerpt
Something beautiful that I want to share in more detail soon, is the story about what’s happened since our foster baby left in winter. His parents have been so gracious and loving to continuing a relationship with our family and we’ve gotten to see “A” a number of times since he’s reunified with them. My heart expands with joy each time we get to see him. It also deeply aches when we have to say goodbye each time. I still carry a profound sadness while being overwhelmed with gratitude. <a class=
