For the previous 4 years, my friend Megan has devoted herself to being a single foster guardian. Every time a brand new baby comes into her house, she meets them with love, endurance and empathy. She additionally does the whole lot she will to assist the connection between the kiddos and their organic mother and father. Since she began fostering, three little ones have been reunified with their households, and I’ve seen Megan rally behind the mother and father each time. After a toddler leaves her house, she goes via her personal strategy of pleasure, grief and relaxation, and she or he handles all of it with a lot grace. Individually, she is the buddy who’s all the time ready with something you want (Tide pen, gum, flashlight, granola bar, you title it), however she additionally likes to have a superb time and is hilarious in party-mode. I’m so happy with her and know the world is a greater, safer place as a result of she’s in it.
How about you? Who’re you proud of proper now? We’d love to listen to.
