Why be a Foster Mom…

I was asked today why I would turn my life upside down for children that weren’t mine.

I hesitated for a moment and said “There is a good chance that in the future, my foster child may not remember my name. There is a good chance that in the future, my foster child may not remember my face. But I can assure you that each foster child who comes through my home and into my heart will remember one thing; that for a period in his/her life, he/she was loved, and someday down the road, he/she will blossom into something better because of it.”

I truly believe when you share God’s love with a child in need, you are changing the life of a child, and changing the world. You are answering God’s call to serve Him and His children in need and for that, I’m willing to turn my life upside down.

If you are interested in becoming a foster parent, DM me.
