I have noticed that mothering can be so isolating and, therefore, we lose prospective on what a great job we are doing. We tend to be so hard on ourselves. Just knowing that most (if not ALL) mothers are hard on themselves helps to realize that we can't all be bad moms, so there may be some good in what I am doing!<br />My husband and I have been foster parents for 9 years. We have welcomed over 20 kids into our home but only 4 remained. My 3 boys are adopted and my baby girl's adoption will be finalized this month. While so many thoughts ran through my mind while reading you post, I will offer only this. Think about your two adoptive kids especially when you decide whether or not to foster. Having a child in your home for 9 months or more only to return home or to another family can be devastating for them. They have experienced such loss in their short lives and watching a child come and go can lead to more difficult attachment issues and may have them questioning their own permanence in your home. Just a thought (or two). Good luck in your decision making. Mary KayMary Kay Popeck-Snownoreply@blogger.com
