how i wish i could visit a faire this weekend. last week my husband and i let go of the foster family. we see that it was the right thing to do since the same negative pattern seems to be repeating. we have exhausted our funds trying to help them get on their feet and it makes me sad to know they may lose their 7 children to the state. they have been living (quite miraculously) at the ramada at $120 a night for that last month. please pray for this family and for me as well. my soul is heavy and i'm struggling to get on top of it. this is probably one of the only venues i can share these feelings with. i wouldn't want to add any more burden on them. anyway, thanks for your support and prayers. peace.

The struggle is the holding on, isn't it. So, many times it is the showing of kindnesses that is our role at times like these, not supporting someone's infancy. You are strong, wise, and giving and you live with an open heart. Good luck with caring for yourself now so, that when and if the time arises you are called to care for someone again, you are refueled. Blessings. amy |
