The Unknown

As we approach our final home study of the year,

anticipation is starting to settle in.

What is the age of the child?

Unknown

What is the gender?

Unknown

What is the race/ethnicity?

Unknown

What day are we getting our foster child?

Unknown

There is one thing that we do know though.

God is going to watch over us,

provide for us,

and take care of us,

through thick and thin.

Flourish

Those precious times

have come and gone,

where you needed mommy

over everyone.

Θ

From changing your diaper,

and putting on your clothes,

 to combing your hair,

and watching you grow.

Θ

Now it’s time I set you free

to see what kind of toddler you grow up to be.

These times I will forever cherish,

and I can’t wait to see you

spread your wings,

and watch you flourish.

Do you?

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.

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.
