We all go through days like this, just remember it will pass, and without you where would they be? what would they be? I know I know...who care's? We all fill like that....And we always love the kids, its the sw we hate....ooops did I type that, must be another of my typo's...yes yes thats what it was. Underappricated?......are we ever over appricated, you can't tell by the check's they send us...o'well if its not for the money it must be for the love.....hhhmmmm..I hope you laughed, it makes things better, and if we can't turn to each other to fill better, then who can we, nobody but another foster parent truely understands......just rememer, even if your not appricated today, 58 years from now, when your dead and gone you prob wont be either....o'man, another typo.....always remember, WE WILL BE REMEMBERED, and appricated.



smile and have a hot bath they both help!!!!!

I was having one of those too - until our fs saw the pics on the screen saver of our "zoo day" and we got lots of laughs out of his descriptions. And he wouldn't have been there if it weren't for us. It lightened my day as I watched the excitement and joy in his face while he was telling story after story about the animals.

He remembered every step all the way thru the zoo. Why wouldn't he remember me? The sw or cw won't but he will.

PRAY and the Lord will lift your spirits.

Remember why we do it at all. Look at this thread Why Foster? What is your reason...then and now?

Any time I wonder "why" I try to go see what everyone has to say there!!
