Your Story Rewritten

by Sheridan Johnson2 Comments on Your Story Rewritten

Taken from everything you knew

to a new place, with new people, and surroundings.

You were placed with us,

wish such joy, a bit of uncertainty,

and a lot of curiosity.

Being your foster parents,

allows us to provide for you, with kindness,

care, shelter, and lots of love.

Don’t worry about your past,

mistakes that were made, that led you here.

Look forward to the future,

to everything that God has in store for you.

We can’t wait to celebrate

all of your many “firsts”,

and watch you soar.

Do you?

by Sheridan Johnson3 Comments on Do you?

20140327_115109

Do you see what I see?

Do you see an incredible Nana,

who will do any and everything,

to make sure you are happy in life?

Do you see her shoulders,

that you are able to cry or rest your head on,

any day that you need to?

Do you see the person,

who will inspire you and push you,

to be the best possible version of yourself?

Do you see the person,

who is always just a text, phone call, or drive away?

I do,

I hope you do too.

Sick.

by Sheridan Johnson2 Comments on Sick.

Temperature changing from hot to cold

Aching and hurting in all areas of the body

Coughing so hard and deep

Audible wheezing with each breath in and out

That’s when she knew

she was sick.
