I felt the same way after our visit trip. Our baby's foster mother (and her sister) were crying so hard (because they were so happy to see our daughter when we brought her back to them). I am really dreading the time that they have to say good-bye forever. I was thinking I wish the coordinator could just bring the baby to us, and I knew I was being selfish. I know I will have those memories in my mind forever and I know I will feel their pain of leaving someone they love so much for good.... but I will be able to tell my daughter how much they loved her and how much it hurt them to say good-bye. I was actually feeling like I was a bad person for taking the baby away from them- then I thought, wait if it wasn't me it would be someone else. I agree with Nancy, it's good for the foster mother to see who the baby will be with (puts some closure on it for them maybe).
