Welcome home Breah!
I arrived home from my eigth grade Washington D.C. trip on May, 4, which is my dad's birthday as well. I had a hard time getting sleep on the longggg bus ride through the night. So, I was looking forward to being able to sleep the whole next day away! Little did I know this wouldn't be the case! As I am getting of the bus, I see my mom waiting for me and the first this she says is their is something waiting for you at home and she gave off a little smirk. I honestly didnt think much of it ! I just thought she got me a gift or made me my favorite meal! We arrived home and as I am walking up to my house I see two unfamiliar faces looking out the front door. They were two of the cutest faces I have ever seen. First I saw a young boy looking out the window; his eyes filled with fear, worry, and curosity. Then I saw a little girl with huge eyes and crazy black hair waving to me. I then knew we added two new foster children to our family. Without ever meeting these kids, knowing what they've been through, or any of their previous life, they were accepted into my home with open arms. When starting to foster, my family planned on one girl but God works in so many crazy ways. We now have three foster childern under the age of five, two boys and one girl. I have always wanted a sister and I am so thankful to be sharing my room and life with my little Kate! It's amazing how everything always works out and how far a lot of love and acceptance can go. This week I am competing for Miss Ohio's Outstanding Teen and no matter the outcome I am proud of my accomplishments and everyday I am reminded of why I do this ! I wouldn't change it for the world!
