I am tired......

......of waiting.

I know that getting a placement takes time, but I am tired of waiting.  I can't help but wonder when we will get that call.  The call that could change our lives forever.  We are trying to make our life as normal as possible right now, but yet, we have our phones on as much as possible.  We take them every place we go, even when we sleep, the phone isn't far away.  I just want that call.

I hear/read stories of children in foster care.  I get sad.  Their lives have not been easy.  They don't know where or when they are eating again.  They don't know where they will lay their head that night to sleep.  Will they have blankets?  Will it be with yet another family?  Will they stay more than a day?  Can they attach themselves to the adult without getting their heart broke, yet again?  Children that have been in foster care have to have something inside them---something that you and I, probably could never imagine! 

In our hearts, we know that this is the path we have been given to travel on.  It might not be the easiest path, but it is the one we are picking to travel on.  I hope that this path makes us happy at the end of path.
