Sometimes you are surprised-— you may not get what you expect right away.
I have two friends that raised a niece and nephew for about 5 years, until they returned to their bio parents as teens.
Sadly, the boy is in prison now, but....they just recently heard from the girl. She’s healthy, happy, married with a family of her own. And she credits them with her success, and even tells her kids that they were who made the difference in her life.
Thanks. :’)
Good things do happen! And she knows who was there for her. Thats the best part I think.. when they know that you loved & cared for them. Great to see you! hugs ~Pandy~
