Groovychook Posted November 1, 2013 Author Share Posted November 1, 2013 (edited) Oooohhh... one more sleep to go! We are at the other side of your story,we have a little one now 13months just waiting to be matched with her forever family and while it will be so sad when she leaves it is so rewarding to see her new parents and it makes fostering so worthwhile. What an amazing job you do. It must be so tough to see them go, but wonderful and rewarding to be able to make such a difference Our little man's foster carer is an absolute star and has become a good friend to us. Once enough time has passed to avoid confusing him, I'm hoping that we'll keep in touch. She's looked after him since he was 6 weeks old so it will be a big wrench for her. Big bouquet of flowers heading her way on Monday. Edited November 12, 2013 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 I'm sure she'll be really happy he's going to such a nice family . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacquiefrost Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 That is such wonderful uplifting news. Congratulations. You are so lucky, 6 months old is such a wonderful age and i am envious of the wonderful amazing things you will experience as your little man grows. Cherish every moment as they grow up so fast. I shed a tear too, my 17yr old son has been on holiday with his girlfriends family for the last week and i am missing him so much. Our house is so quiet without him, even though the other two are still here! I will be a jibbering wreck when the oldest 2 go to uni in 2 yrs.

chickencam Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Congratulations, lovely news My best friend from my school days, has two adopted children, her first was four months old when he went to live with them, and her second was four years old and came from a very tough start. She has done so well with them both, but has used all of the support that she can from both social workers and post adoption charities. She found the transition from full time worker to full time mother quite tough at first, getting out there with other parents is important. Have fun and keep us posted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
