Meredith and Elle
It well may be that we will never meet again
in this lifetime so let me say before we part
So much of me is made of what I learned from you
You’ll be with me like a handprint on my heart.
It well may be that we will never meet again

So much of me is made of what I learned from you
You’ll be with me like a handprint on my heart.

This song always reminds me of my S. I’m sorry the loss and the necessity of it.

Oh Baggage, I’m so sorry. I am always amazed at how you are able to balance everything, and deal with having to make such hard decisions. You’re in my thoughts at this difficult time.

It seems to me that this is one of the hardest parts of foster care, letting them move on when necessary. You are so strong.

A handprint on my heart. I have so many foster children who left for me. I wonder if they know I still dream about them, pray for them, think of them?

My son just said to me this morning “Do you think A (foster daughter two years ago) and B (her brother) have forgotten about us?” I said , I “I don’t know, but I know I’ll never forget them”. He said “Me either, I think of them whenever summer comes”.
Thinking of you and praying for you today.

Just wanted you to know that I’m thinking about you and the whole family. I can’t imagine how hard this must be.

I’m sorry this has to happen. Inadequate, I know, but words can’t do much now.
Nice poem, too.

Oh Baggage, I’m so sorry. This is so tough. We’re looking at our first placement in the next couple of weeks and I am just dreading the inevitable heartbreak. I’m sorry you may not see them again….. I’m in Ontario Canada, and our systems are quite different so I don’t know about all your regulations. Here there is almost always a period of transition. Are you able to ease them into their next placement? Take care. ((HUGS)))

Love,
