First off, thank you again. Your perspective means a lot to me. I am ashamed to say that some of the things you have said that your foster mother did that made you feel like you didn't belong I am guilty of [ At other times I'd hear comments like "if you don't like it here, you can call your social worker and ask to be moved] Hearing you say it from your point makes me see how it hurts her, and makes her feel like she isn't really a part of our family. We are hoping to remedy the legal end of that very soon, as her adoption should be finalized within the month. Now it is time to make the heart commitment.
She and I are a bit of a mismatch too, [but I probably didn't pass up many opportunities for a fight, and she was a rather strict disciplinarian, so we meshed like mismatched sprockets.] Hopefully as time goes by and she realizes she is here to stay that end will improve.
Thanks again.
