Reality is often sad, though this telling is fictional! I am glad I could give it some sunshine at the end!

This is very touching. I want to hug Milo – people like him literally are life savers.

I love people like Milo; foster parents are not just there to give kids a place to sleep and food. They truly have to love them.

You are so right! And if they do they literally can alter a child’s whole life. I work within the area of Foster and adoption so it’s something I’m really passionate about.

Oh, wow, how amazing that you work within the fostering area. I do not work within it but I am passionate about it and might move into it one day.
I now feel even more happy that you connected with this piece!

I can feel your love of children and your passion that they are treated with love and care in much of your writing. A child’s relationship with their caregiver forms their template for how they view themselves, others and how they are able to recognize and manage their emotions. For children who have experienced trauma, a loving and accepting carer can shape these templates in ways that shapes that child’s future. But, it is not an easy job to be a good carer….. And, there are many who do it for the wrong reasons.

That is truly one of my passions! I am a big lover of families that have no violence, and also a visualizer and embodier of hoping that children who are hurt find the love they need.

What the current U.S. so-called administration is doing is surely unconscionable child-abuse.

. . . . It is sad there is not more empathy in the world to stop such heartless things from happening.

This was an interesting way of doing this. I don’t know if this is a real account, but it hit me really hard. I’m not a foster kid but I can only imagine the heartache and pain a lot of them go through. Thank you for sharing.

I wanted to try something new and was really happy with the way this turned out! It is fictional but I feel like it represents what a lot of foster kids go through.

What a beautiful story. God only knows what foster children go through. I hope more of them get what that this little one got.

If more children find the happiness Jay did, we will be looking at a rainbow. 🙂

You almost choked me – at the beginning it sounded like the book ROOM, then I saw how all his pretence was wrong, for good, foster kids always has scars, and your story gave so much hope – much love to you
