I know, I want to adopt. But, sometimes we actually make a difference to the parents, and that can be comforting when you foster. I don't want to miss any thing with my new baby and I see that as a bonding time, I just have to bear the risk to have them from the beginning. I really want that. It may not make a difference once I raise one or two, but now, I want the babies.
And when they leave, I just deal with it. I know that when one leaves, there are many more babies to come. People ask, what will you do when she leaves, I say, get another one, they think I a glutton for punishment. But, I just say, it takes as long as it takes and when our family comes together, I will be better prepared to be a good mom, I have learned so much from fostering, I think I'm going to be a great mom.
