i will say as a foster/ not yet adoptive mom, I feel this way at times.

We do make sure the kids look good when we are out and about, not just for esteem reasons but because our family will get the extra looks as a transracial family/ 2 mom family.

There are times at home when I am upset/ tired etc, that there is guilt since we are "asking" for this. But, I can usually let it go.
