When They Go

Well, this is it.

My last post. Maybe for good on this blog.

I never thought it would come to this. Never thought I would take in a child and for four months pour my life and heart into them, work harder than I have ever worked, learn more than I ever thought there was to know about child behavior and care,

 

Wish moments like this could have lasted longer.

 

 

and then send them away. It has taken me a while to be able to write this. It was not an easy thing to accept. I knew he was going to have to go, because it wasn't working out. It's hard to explain if you haven't lived it. But it has to be what's best for everyone involved. God knows. He knew that we would only have him for a short time. I can only pray that the verses he learned, the songs he sang, the morals he was taught will stay with him and bear fruit one day.

 

He was well prepared for his departure and when he learned that he would be returning to a previous foster home, was very excited. It is also believed that they have made the decision to adopt him.

 

At this point we do not know if we will continue to try to adopt through the state or not.

We need a little time to process everything that has happened.
