Becoming a foster child meant the world to my brother & I. We were left on the street at ages 4 & 2. Our needs were met. We were loved and cared for. Our father was in Germany and did''''nt know we were abandoned. Our father fought for custody & won. I remember our foster parents as the most loving and kind people which helped me understand early in life that everyone is not the same. Our dad told us to find love for our Mother because she was ill, she really does love you. My husband & I became foster parents in 2000. We''''ve fostered 63 children and have adopted six of the cutest and most wonderful children ever. There ages are 10,10,9,8,7,4. Please find love & time in your hearts for the children that need it the most. Thanks for your Kindness - Gretchen
