I remember thinking when we signed up for foster care, that I was being safe, we signed up as an emergent home, a temporary space to kids coming into care until they could transition to a new home, respit care.

What I can’t see
I don't like the not knowing. I need to know the solution, I need to know if is a solution that I find acceptable. I have so often given a problem to God and on the drive home I find myself calculating how I can fix the problem on my own, lately I feel this… Continue reading What I can’t see
A drip
You don't think that a tiny drip can make a difference. Consider filling your swimming pool with a very slow drip, it seems impossible, a tireless or futile effort.
