Changing Lives


 
 
Growing up, I wanted children, I wanted to foster and I wanted to adopt. I never knew how I would have children, but I know that I was meant to be a Mom.
 
I have this great opportunity to change the life of the children that come into our home. I can teach them, I can love them, I can give them safety and stability. There are so many things that I can do to change their life. The thing I did not realize is how much they would change me. They changed me into a Mommy, and all that includes. I am a counselor, nurse, teacher, personal assistant, housekeeper, chef, chauffeur and many more.
 
This is what I choose to remind myself of after a long day of fighting with a toddler and taking care of a sick baby.
