2 WEEKS

Today is the 2 week mark that Baby has been with us. He is precious. He is a good baby. His cuteness rivals that of my own children when they were babies! I really wish I could post pictures of his face, but privacy/confidentiality laws prohibit me from doing that. Must protect Baby, Birth Mom, and us.

Fostering has felt completely different than I thought it would. I knew I would bond with the baby, but I thought it would feel more like long-term babysitting. It doesn't. I feel like I've given birth to this kiddo. My fellow foster moms tell me that it's not only completely normal to feel this way, but good. I remind myself everyday that I am a bridge between his birth and his forever family. A very important job, but it will be hard when he leaves.
