I believe very strongly that meeting the foster family is a part of the process that cannot be undervalued. Meeting the foster family lingers large in my memories, and I am a better person for it.


This family is loving, warm, and so special. They have been with our son for all of these many months now, and they know firsthand everything about him. I do not believe that this process is complete without a significant thanks to them for all they have done.

As for the pain in their eyes when handing over this child for the last time, it's part of the deal. It's all about love, and without that pain - it's just a "process". I think about my child every minute of everyday; and now that we have visited and met these amazing people, I think of them, as well.

I bought a lifebook/scrapbook today, and I am pondering the section which explains his life with the foster family. It will be an important part of this book.
