New Normal

The has been so much change in my life! I need to make an update soon!
but for now I should try to go to bed....

Our foster baby Sam is going back home and it is soooooo hard to let them go...we fall in love with every child that comes into our home. It is strange that with every child our family changes and a new normal kind of occurs.

Sam was here for 9 months and in those 9 months we have seen this sweet boy grow by leaps in bounds. He is intelligent and can carry on a conversation as if he were a 6 year old. He has a humor and a laugh that gets everyone around him laughing and wondering what he is going to say or do next. Sam is a boy that loves to ride scooters, bikes, plays with balls, trucks and roll in the dirt. This sweet boy has a way of touching all those around him. everyone wants to play with Sam or be with him... He is full of personality!!!!

Although he is only gone on a weekend visit I miss him so much, its so crazy how fast these little ones become a part of your life and when you say goodbye, we pray and trust that God is going to guide, protect and keep them safe... He is going back home and I am so excited for his family!!! don't get me wrong, but we still miss Sam and try to create a new normal without him.
