In the adoption-foster care community, its common to share the story of how the fabric of your unique family came to be woven together. (Think support group without the 12 steps. But we still have coffee and sweets sometimes.) Often the narrative starts something like this, "I knew I really wanted to adopt/foster/love children in hard places, but my husband wasn't so sure at first." It's totally fine, our story follows a similar plot line!
But, somewhere along our bumpy road, you said "yes" enough times to end up here. To be in the throes of parenting and doing our best to be there when others couldn't. And you my friend, are why they have special days set aside to say, "We see what your'e doing. Thank you."
